AMALGAM FILLINGS CONTAIN MERCURY THAT IS DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS.
According to the Food and Drug Administration, dental amalgam fillings, or silver fillings, contain elemental mercury. Mercury fillings continually vaporize (i.e. leak mercury vapor) in the mouth especially when chewing, brushing, or drinking hot liquids. Mercury is known to cause adverse health effects on the brain and kidneys.

They’re not the best for long term for maintaining the bite and sustaining and protecting the teeth.
