Be careful of all the mercury! There are ways to protect yourself. It's crazy that they are still using amalgam!

Oh don’t worry, the amalgam isn’t free mercury so it’s not dangerous! If it was incenerated tho, it could release particles in the environment!
Actually amalgam is still used for patients who can’t afford composites, which is a material that doesn’t require a large prep and can match he color of your adjacent teeth!
