Safe Removal of Mercury Amalgam Fillings

During removal of Mercury-Amalgam fillings and replacement with carefully selected bio-compatible alternatives, mercury is released as a vapor.

Mercury Removal Protocol

We will be using specially developed protocols to minimize your risk of exposure. We will offer you a mask to place over your nose to allow you to breath oxygen. We will place a vinyl sheet (rubber dam) on the teeth we are treating to isolate them form the rest of your mouth.

A high speed vacuum will be used to suction off debris generated by the old fillings, and another vacuum will pull away the vapor generated to filter the mercury and other toxins out of the air. Disposable surgical drapes will be placed over your body to avoid contamination of your skin and clothing.

If your are undergoing Mercury-Amalgam filling removal please follow our guidleines for preparing yourself for removal.
