Amalgam fillings are the largest source of mercury in mostpeople with daily exposures documented to commonly be above government health guidelines (49,79,183,199,506,594,600,607,217). This is due to continuous vaporization of mercury from amalgam in the mouth, along with galvanic currents from mixed metals in the mouth that deposit the mercury in the gums and oral cavity(605). Due to the high daily mercury exposure and excretion into home and business sewers of those with amalgam, dental amalgam is also the largest source of the high levels of mercury found in all sewers and sewer sludge, and thus according to government studies a significant source of mercury in rivers, lakes, bays, fish, andcrops(603). People also get significant exposure from vaccinations, fish, and dental office vapor(600).
