FDA Expected To Rule On Mercury Dental Amalgams

• Trusted FDA GMP online training courses taught by SkillsPlus International Inc.

I'm so glad that I don't have mercury fillings in my mouth anymore. Unfortunately, I've got a mouthful of crowns, and precious little left of my natural teeth. I ran across this press release, and thought you'd be happy to know that the FDA is expected to rule on mercury-containing dental amalgams, "Resolution to Study Phase Out of Mercury Tooth Dental Fillings Receives 16% of Vote at Danaher Shareholder Meeting." The press release states, "Some-time in late July, the Food and Drug Administration is expected to rule on the use of mercury amalgam. The Consumers for Dental Choice won a 10-year battle with the FDA to comply with the law and set a date to classify mercury amalgam."

uhhhh, BPA (bis phenol A) might actually linger on for a long time in the body, reports this Plastics News article, Rochester study says BPA may linger in the body. Just when you thought it might be safe, this bit of news is worrisome. It might mean that there are more possible sources of BPA exposure running around, and/or it just hangs around in the body longer in certain tissues like fat.
