I definitely don't agree with everything this guy says but if you're the kind of person who would prefer an ND to an MD he may be up your alley.

When it comes to removing amalgams and replacing them with composites there is significant disagreement between the majority of the dental profession and a few dentists such as Dr. Freiberg and many adherents of "natural" or "holistic" medical approaches. The consensus currently among the majority of dentists still is that encouraging the replacement of amalgams merely to remove them from the body with no other indication is tantamount to malpractice. If there is evidence of leaking margins, a high caries risk profile, radiographic lesions or other any other indication for replacement or if a patient strongly desires replacement for esthetic reasons then obviously it's not a problem.
I personally don't like the way amalgams tend to stain teeth over long periods of time and the fact that they require the removal of additional structure when preparing the tooth to allow for adequate retention. If you have them removed you have to anticipate the removal of even more tooth structure however, especially if they have stained the teeth and you want the stains removed for an esthetic result.
