Overview
Mercury Undercover unveils how far those in power will go to prevent you from learning the truth about mercury contamination from dental amalgam fillings, all in the name of money. It is a gripping tale that will make you think twice before you eat your next catch-of-the-day or plan your next visit to the dentist’s office. Half of all North American dentists still use amalgam for its quick and easy profits, then pass the bill for damages on to the rest of us, damages to health, as well as to the environment. American dentistry's 150-year affair with mercury is a tale of profits first, people last.
