    Yeah, have been reading about that for the last 20 years. Dentists are still just drilling and refilling holes or pulling teeth. Just like they did 200 years ago.

      That’s why I mentioned that they finally reached human trials. That’s the last big step before they can be released. New technology needs time to go from the lab to practical use.

        Mercury amalgum’s still the standard afaik. Or, the next alternative, iirc, is some kind of hormone disregulating plastic?

        May as well be lead. Oh but lead’s poisonous. Lets use cadmium. … Is the type of crazy non-logic the mercury poisoned brain thinks is fine.
