    Oral Health Topics

    Does mercury in the silver fillings in your mouth pose any long-term health risks? Does fluoride, in spite of everything we’ve been told since childhood, actually cause more harm than good? What does the latest research reveal about tobacco use on your overall oral health?

    This section is dedicated to the latest information about these and other oral health topics, culled from authoritative sources such as the American Dental Association.
