I've just been told I need a filling it's round by the side of my mouth so for cosmetic reasons I would prefer a white one. I have been told I can get a metal filling on the NHS but I would have to go private for a white one. I'm not 100% sure what to do yet but I also remember lots of stories over the years about how bad the mercury fillings can be.
Is this true or did the press exagerate this just to scare us?
 
Mercury is very bad. It lodges in your guts causing health problems for the rest of your life.
