Silver fillings and ttc?

Okay I've read something now i'm worried about it,about 2 years ago i went and had a bunch of stuff done with my teeth(never had insurance)so wanted to do it all together cheaper for me,anyway dentist said he needed to remove old silver fillings about 4 (from when i was a kid)and refill them again and then he said i need 3 new ones like a total of 7 silver fillings.Well i did it thinking that its the best thing for my teeth.Now ive read how bad they are for you and about miscarriges and all kinda stuff.Well ive been TTC for 1 and a half years now and have had a molar pregnancy and two early miscarriges,so now im worried that this could have something to do with it ..... or is it just in my head now that i read about it..Also id like to hear from moms who have alot of silver fillings and NO proplems TTC.Also having them removed is not a option for me now..im in my thirties and cant wait anymore and also i heard having them removed is worse.Thanks

Silver fillings and ttc?
I have a bunch of silver fillings in my teeth left over from when I was a child. I have never had a dentist tell me that they needed to be removed, except if they were cracked or something. Hmmmm....I haven't ever heard of a relationship between the silver fillings and miscarriages. I have so many fillings in my teeth....if they were bad for me, I would be really sick by now.


I have one healthy child and one on the way. I haven't ever had trouble TTC....got pregnant on first try with # 1 and after 2 trys with # 2.


Sorry you have been through such a tough time with this! Best of luck and best of wishes for a future happy and healthy pregnancy~
Reply:My mom has a ton of silver fillings and got pregnant whenever my dad looked at her funny. My gramma has silver fillings too and obviously had kids.lol. I dont think its really a viable concern.





Ask your doctor, though.
Reply:I have NEVER heard that before. I have silver fillings from when I was little. And in fact, right after Thanksgiving, the dentist removed one from when I was a kid and re-did and added onto it since I needed another in there. I am 33 weeks now.
