It depends The answer is "it depends."
If we don't know what the teaspoon is holding, then we can't answer the question. That's because a milligram is a unit of WEIGHT, whereas a teaspoon is a unit of volume.
So what? you ask. Well, a teaspoon of black pepper will not weigh the same as a teaspoon of iron filings, which will have a different weight than a teaspoon of sugar, which will have a different weight than a teaspoon of tungsten filings or liquid Mercury.
Do not confuse WEIGHT with VOLUME.
For example, a level teaspoon of table salt has (weighs) about 2300 milligrams. FYI, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) is 2400 milligrams. And average consumption in the USA is 3500 milligrams. Drop the dill pickle and back away!
There are 10 milligrams in one teaspoon.

The teaspoon as a volume unit has 5 mL.
Mass = volume x density; density is a specific characteristic of any material. So the mass contained in a teaspoon depends on the density.
