Can Amalgam dental filling be harmful to my child’s health?

Tuesday, Apr. 3rd 2012 7:59 AM

I have a six year old with a cavity in the back tooth.  I do not have a lot of money and without dental insurance having the filling done is expensive.  I want her to get a amalgam filling since it is only a baby tooth we are talking about but my mom is getting on me about this saying that the mercury in the filling can be harmful to my child. Looking for a more non bias view point.
