During the study, scientists found that children who got tooth-colored fillings made with BPA derivatives experienced higher rates of social anxiety and depression compared to children whose fillings were made with metals or other materials. Further, the risk of behavioral problems increased with the number of fillings a child received.
"There is a strong suggestion that the associations may be causal, but we can't be certain," says Maserejian, an epidemiologist with the New England Research Institutes. "More research is needed."
