I ain't no dentist but I had a <SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow; COLOR: black" id=Google-navclient-hilite><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow; COLOR: black" id=Google-navclient-hilite>teeth cleaning</SPAN></SPAN> and for 3 months after I had a <SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: cyan; COLOR: black" id=Google-navclient-hilite><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: cyan; COLOR: black" id=Google-navclient-hilite>metallic taste</SPAN></SPAN> in my mouth.
Not only that, but I knew exactly which part of my mouth it was coming from. (bottom left).
Now my mouth is filled with fillings (mostly amalgam/amalgum , if not all ) but bottom left there is a particularly large one.
I put it to the dentist and he poo-poo'ed my perception that his cleaning had exposed Mercury in that particular filling. He said "maybe its some decay that got exposed".
But I know that taste. I've tasted it before with new fillings (I've been "filled" since I was 12) - I am now 60.
I can only imagine that during the 3 months the surface of the filling oxegenates to an innert surface protecting me from the mercury until it gets scuffed again.
I would really appreciate a knowledgeable dentist's opinion on this?
