Thanks for your input, @mirhimayun!
Unfortunately amalgams are still common practice even in the US. They are cheaper than composites, as insurance will often cover them at 100% vs. only partial coverage for composites.
It is extremely important for consumers to educate themselves on their options! This standard practice is actually very dangerous to long term health.
Looking forward to the information you share on the topic! We need more people talking about this!
