Not sure if this board is the best place to post this, but some of you anons really do know your shit and I thought I'd ask here.
Small bit of background: Dentist put in a filling 3 weeks ago which popped out after a week. He told me to come back to refill.
He never told me, but the second time he used amalgam. The filling felt "frayed" when my tongue touched it and for hours after I kept spitting bits of amalgam out of my mouth. I went back to him and he gave out to me for biting down (which I didn't do, and he didn't tell me not to do) and poked around and said it was fine. 3.5 hours later (he told me not to eat for 2 hours) I had some soft food and afterwards realised that the filling was gone and I swallowed most of it.
I have a weird feeling in my throat and nose.
I rang 111 (I'm using NHS in the UK) and they did show some concern but a retarded doctor eventually rang me back and told me everything was fine ("They wouldn't use amalgam if it wasn't safe")
Is my health fucked? What should I do now?
