How can there be more exposure from baby bottles than from a substance that is in my childs mouth?
A. The exposure from baby bottles is higher because formula is often mixed with boiling water. This very high level of heat causes more bisphenol A to leach out. This type of heat exposure does not occur in the mouth. Once the dental material is placed and hardened, it becomes very stable. Top of page For new sealants/restorations Q.
