An easy approach to this question is to ask what actually "increases the patient's risk"?
Choice A is eliminated because it is awkward.
In choices B, D, & E the risk is increased by "it" and "it" refers to mercury.
In choice C, the risk is increased by the receipt of fillings, which was the meaning conveyed by the original sentence.
Therefore, C is the correct answer
