I have four mercury fillings from childhood. Two of these fillings are showing through the enamel of the two teeth so both teeth are grey/black in appearance. I don't know whether this is due to the enamel thinning or the mercury is leaking. Whilst it is not causing em any pain it is really affecting my confidence. I am not sure what to do and am worried as it seems to have got progressively worse over the past year. I am breastfeeding so am very confused about what the best thing to do is as I don't want any mercury leaking into the breastmilk. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Many Thanks
For most people natural teeth become more translucent as they age, that may be why your fillings are showing through now. As for taking out your fillings, maybe somebody with more knowledge can pitch in.
