Abstract / Excerpt:

Effects caused by allergic hypersensitivity to amalgam or mercury, including possible auto-immune reactions, can not be adequately addressed by any proposed tolerable daily intake. Individuals suspecting possible allergic or auto-immune reactions should avoid the use of amalgam by selecting suitable alternate materials in consultation with dental care (and possibly health care) professionals.
