Thanks for the link. I have the same problems with nickel.
I checked the link and it says that it’s impossible not to ingest nickel as it is in most foodstuffs. This is news to me!
Thanx for the info.
If you click the link in OP, you will see that crowns from China may contain lead and a woman had an adverse reaction.
I don’t really want anything in my mouth made in China, anyway. I don’t trust them.
Including Chocolate, of all things. Best not to worry about it, LOL.

Stimulating a discussion concerning the “unknown contents” of the dental materials used by dentists in your teeth and their effects upon your body’s organ systems is quite appropriate so that dental patients, meaning all of you, can be informed and able to question your dentists as what he/she is using in your oral cavities and their effects upon your bodies. Unfortunately most, but not all dentists, are many times quite ignorant concerning this subject.
You talk and are rightly concerned about the possibility of lead in your porcelain restorations, yet you should make yourselves aware of the TOXICITY to your bodies from amalgam filling material, which is about 54% mercury, which is the second most toxic element on the planet and whose vapors do escape from these fillings and are absorbed by the mucous membrane of your oral cavities and migrate to specific organ systems. Kidney, spleen, thyroid and brain. Amalgam fillings should be outlawed by the dentists themselves, but the average practicing dentist unfortunately robotically adheres to whatever the American Dental Association says.
Be an informed patient or client when dealing with professionals, whether they be dentists, physicians, lawyers, etc.
Regards to all
Thanks for your thoughtful post.
I’m surprised there are still dentists who use amalgan, as all of the dentists in my tiny town do not.
But it’s good for folks to ask their dentists to be sure they don’t use amalgan, as well as making sure crowns, fillings, etc. are not manufactured in China.
Dental work from China may contain lead
I swear they give out journalism degrees in Crackerjack boxes these days.
On a side note, I have a nickel allergy too. I use Simply Whispers earrings. :)
“I use Simply Whispers earrings.”
Do you know what they are made of? Metal? Plastic?
Thanx!
You’re Welcome. :)
