If my memory serves me, there has been something in the news recently about dentists not being allowed to state that mercury fillings are dangerous. *******>>> I believe California had a lawsuit to change this. Does anyone remember the particulars? Nenah ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi Nenah -- Here is one of many websites. There are many more. Just do a Web search on Google, etc. Hope this is of interest ... Gunar http://home.earthlink.net/~berniew1/damspr5.html This website has details of legislation from many States, including California. Here is just one excerpt from the web-site: " ... State Legislatures Pass Bills Placing Restrictions or Warnings on Use of Amalgam Dental Fillings- More States Plan to Consider Bills in the Next Legislative Session The California Legislature passed a bill, SB134, to implement Proposition 65 which was passed earlier and requires all dentists who use amalgam dental fillings to issue the following warning: "This office uses amalgam filling materials which contain and expose you to a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects and other reproductive harm". (mercury) ." ... ~~~~~~~~~~`This rather long site concludes with the following, which should provide lots of related information: Documentation with over 2500 medical study references on exposure levels and adverse health effects of mercury from amalgam fillings, as well as 60,000 clinical cases documented by doctors of recovery from over 30 chronic conditions after amalgam replacement can be found at www.home.earthlink.net/~berniew1/indexa.html
