Can Repaired Tooth Crown A Mercury Filling Cause Fuel Smell?
I have been smelling fuel or exhaust spells on & off for a couple of weeks- nobody else smells them.
For awhile now I have had a cracked tooth & crown in need of repair as well as mercury fillings - could they be causing this problem or some other reason?
Thank you!

hi
welcome to HCM
cracked tooth or crown could never be the reason because of smelling fuel or exhaust spells on & off.
for your tooth, get an IOPA xray done and visit your dentist for cure.
thank you
