Dental amalgam contains toxic mercury!!!

The effects of mercury on the human body from dental amalgam are still hotly debated in Australia. More information can be obtained at the ASOMAT Website (Australian Society of Oral Medicine and Toxocology) at

• Dental amalgam is unsightly and blackens over time.

Ella's old mercury amalgam fillings have been removed and
replaced by natural-looking resin fillings.

• Dental amalgam expands and contracts with hot and cold, often
contributing to painful fractures in the remaining tooth structure.

• The National Health & Medical Research Council of Australia recommended that "exposure to mercury should be minimized where
an alternative restorative is available ....... particularly in ....... children, pregnant women and [persons suffering from] kidney disease".

• In Australia, at least, there are stringent laws governing the safe
disposal of mercury/amalgam - so why do they still allow Australian dentists to place it in the human mouth?

• The single greatest source of mercury exposure for the general
population is Dental Amalgam.

At Donaldson Dental, we believe that there is NO safe form of mercury in living tissue.
