"CHICAGO (March 27, 2008)—An Ohio TV station aired a report in late February claiming that a dental crown produced in a Chinese dental lab has tested positive for lead. There is no appropriate use for lead in manufacturing dental prosthetics."
From the ADA Website.
Well, not sure about anyone else, but I would not want a crown or bridge which contained lead. Seeing that lead is known to cause many problems in the human body, it makes you wonder what they were thinking.
Next time I need something like that, I am going to ask the dentist where my crown was manufactured. Besides, using local labs will have the added benefit of supporting local economies.
Cheers,
Dan.
