You may have heard people talk about replacing their silver (amalgam) fillings. While there’s no clinical requirement to remove them unless they’re damaged or decayed, some patients choose to have them replaced as part of a personal preference or holistic approach to their dental care.
At Evolve Dentistry, we respect that choice—and we’re here to support it with safety-led protocols designed to protect you throughout the process.
What is amalgam?
Amalgam is a durable material made from a mix of metals, including mercury. It’s been used for decades and is still considered safe by many dental authorities. However, some patients prefer alternative materials for personal, aesthetic, or lifestyle reasons.
What is the SMART protocol?
The SMART protocol (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique), developed by the IAOMT, involves a comprehensive set of protective measures to reduce potential exposure to mercury vapour during the removal of amalgam fillings.
At Evolve Dentistry, we use:

Can chipped teeth be fixed without braces? In this latest Two Thirty episode, Carol explains that the answer depends on why the tooth chipped in the first place.
Sometimes teeth chip because of the way they meet or their position. In these cases, orthodontic treatment may be recommended to move the teeth into a healthier position and help prevent further damage.
For many chips, a simple and effective option is composite bonding - carefully adding tooth-coloured material to rebuild the shape and restore your smile.
