Do you do that Doc?"

Of course I do. Every dentist in my state does exactly that.

Is you memory that short? This was already discussed and posted, long
ago. I'm surprised you might have forgotten this point.

Since the profit is much higher for other materials, dentists have a
great incentive to avoid amalgam and place other materials anyway.

Patients in my state only receive amalgams when they CHOOSE it.

But we don't want to stand in the way of patient choice, do we??
