375: Amalgam, Fluoride, Root Canals and All Things DENTAL Affecting How We Age with NYC Smile Design
Manage episode 420669990 series 2447498
Hey! It is Natalie Jill! Today on Midlife Conversations I am chatting with Dr. Ramin Tabib and Dr. Elisa Mello about amalgam fillings. This old and outdated tooth restoration technique from the 1800s uses mercury, one of the most toxic substances for humans. While it's banned in some countries, it's still allowed in the US, likely because the American Dental Association (ADA) was built around it. In the past, barbers often replaced amalgam fillings, creating an economic need to protect the industry and ensure dentists had work. If the ADA were to admit that amalgams are harmful, it would lead to a flood of lawsuits. Additionally, because the metal in the fillings expands differently than teeth do, it causes tiny cracks, leading to more mercury leakage, tooth fractures, and decay. This sets us up for even more dental work in the future.
In this episode, you will learn:
All About Amalgam Fillings
Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM) Crowns
The connection between dental health and overall wellness
Advancements in dental implant materials
Should you be using fluoride
Pros & Cons of Root Canals
Whether or not to get veneers
and MORE!
