Safe Removal of Amalgam Fillings

The mercury-free dentist of the world have been acutely aware of the potential for excess exposure of mercury when removing amalgam fillings, and have devised a number of strategies for reducing the amount of mercury exposure to both patients and dental staff during amalgam removal.

Our goal as dental providers is to offer the safest possible removal as old amalgam fillings break down and we encourage you to research safety issues surrounding amalgam restoration for yourself. When existing amalgam filings are mechanically intact, it must be your personal choice to have them replaced with other materials, whether for health or esthetic reasons.

Safe Mercury Removal Protocol

1. Eye protection for our patients.
2. Pre-treatment rinse with Slurry Activated Charcoal repeated after mercury fillings have been removed.
3. Patient in dental chair covered with oversize bib.
4. An ora-dental dam napkin drapes facial skin.
5. Alternative oxygen source provided to patient via nasal mask.
6. Isolate the teeth with a properly fitted, non-latex dental dam.
7. A saliva ejector placed under the dental dam to pick up mercury vapors that will otherwise pass though.
8. Using high volume suctions.
9. Using IQ air system to remove mercury filling particles and vapors.
10. An ionizing filtering system an mercury vapor filtering system to purify the air. (Mercury Vapor Ionizer).
11. Sectioning mercury fillings into as large of "chunks" as possible with a new carbide cutting burr and abundant rinsing.
