Hello AstridHaze. An absence of evidence to support amalgam being dangerous doesn't necessarily mean amalgam is not dangerous. Amalgam releases mercury vapor which is dangerous, and it does erode into inorganic mercury over the lifetime of the filling, which again IS dangerous. Moreover, no evidence in support of amalgam's 'dangerousness' only means that no causal relationship between amalgam and any disease has been PROVEN with evidence. This type of flawed thinking is equivalent to saying: "Breathing air with extremely small amounts of arsenic in it daily has not been proven in STUDIES to cause disease and is therefore safe". But, breathing arsenic daily surely has a cumulative dangerous effect.
