Understanding the Risks of Mercury Filling Removal

While appearing silver, amalgam fillings contain 50% mercury, a hazardous metal known to cause lasting neurological harm to your brain and nervous system.

Traditional removal methods often lead to inhaling or ingesting mercury particles or gas, posing risks to both patients and dental staff . . . that’s why we implement specialized protocols to minimize exposure and safeguard everyone’s well-being.

Understanding the Hazards of Retaining Mercury Amalgam Fillings

Mercury amalgam fillings don’t bond to teeth, resulting in potential leakage and bacterial infiltration, leading to underlying issues like decay.

At Presidential Dental, our fillings resemble natural teeth and chemically bond to protect against decay. We prioritize safe removal of old mercury amalgam fillings, replacing them with healthier, natural-looking alternatives.
