• Mercury—a toxic heavy metal that can cause serious and lasting health problems—turns up in many places that you wouldn’t expect. It has now been more than two years.

  If your dentist has ever told you that you have a cavity and you’re over a certain age, then there’s a good chance that you’re walking around with a small amount of mercury in your mouth. Dental amalgam, which is used to fill the cavities in teeth, is traditionally made up of a mix of mercury and a metal alloy that contains silver, tin and copper. Scientists have developed a number of mercury-free alternatives for fillings, but these tend to be more expensive than traditional amalgam and are not so widely used. Alternatives include composite fillings, which can be made of powdered glass quartz, silica or other ceramic particles added to a resin base; glass ionomer fillings, which form a chemical link with the tooth; and porcelain or gold inlays, which are very long lasting but relatively expensive. Other approaches—including laser, ultrasound and drug-based treatments to stimulate the regeneration of dentine—are also being developed.
