Carol is very experienced in amalgam removal and follows strict clinical protocols to ensure the treatment is carried out safely and effectively.
We can only follow this protocol if you request it.
Amalgam is a commonly used filling material that contains an amalgamation of mercury and various other metals including zinc, silver and copper.
At Evolve Dentistry our experience has told us that the majority of our patients are in favour of amalgam free, tooth coloured fillings. Advances in dentistry have led to improved alternative materials to amalgam, resulting in a more natural smile.
Safety is our main concern when conducting dental amalgam removal. We want, at all times, to keep the exposure to amalgam to a minimum. Therefore, we follow a strict protocol that includes:

After amalgam removal, we place a white filling, porcelain inlay or crown. This will be discussed with you during the initial consultation.
Each case is unique, and we tailor treatment plans to individual needs. After the initial consultation you will be sent an estimate in the post that will detail all costs. An up to date price list can be found on our web site.
No improvement or change in health can be guaranteed by removal of amalgam fillings.
Take a look at the International Academy of oral medicine and technology to find out more about dental mercury facts.
Activated charcoal is a powder that is mixed with water and you just drink it like any other drink. It is recommended that it is drunk quite quickly as it does not dissolve in the water, it is just in suspension so if you take a long time to drink it, it will become a sludge in the bottom of the cup.
