Over the last decade or so, there has been much discussion about whether or not non-stick coating like Teflon and Silverstone are safe over long periods of use in cooking. The US Environmental Protection Agency and the makers of non-stick coating have found no significant cause of health maladies related to the cookware, though, so don't chuck your collection just yet. As long as it is in good shape and you don't overheat your food, it is perfectly recommended for use.
The discussion about the non-stick coating is important because there have been concerns about whether or not this material releases toxic gasses at a high heat. According to Dupont, Teflon does flake at 446° F, and it does emit toxic gasses at a temperature of 680° F. So, to avoid this, don't cook your foods in non-stick dishes in the broiler or at extreme temperatures. In general, this cookware is considered safe in every other condition.
One interesting note about non-stick cookware: it is potentially hazardous to birds, so don't let them near your cookware.
