Many guests in the Greenville, SC, area are unaware of the materials being used in their smile to repair or reconstruct it. Dr. Deb Adams, and our team at Palmer Distinctive Dentistry encourage new and current guests of the practice to educate themselves further on the benefits of safely removing and replacing silver mercury fillings (amalgams) fillings with a holistic dentist. Silver mercury fillings (amalgams) removal needs to be done to unique guidelines to ensure safety to both guests and staff.
For many, many years, dentists have used a wide range of materials to protect and repair the teeth. Fillings, which are used to address cavities, are commonly done in most dental facilities. In the past, silver mercury fillings (amalgams) have been used. These fillings contain 50% mercury, a substance that is toxic to the human body. This neurotoxin leaks from silver amalgam fillings and into the body, subjecting individuals to toxic substances and exposure that is often linked to a variety of health conditions including digestive, urinary, cardiac, and immune system issues.
Because silver mercury fillings (amalgams) are not biocompatible with the body, Dr. Deb Adams of Palmer Distinctive Dentistry eliminates the use in our practice. Instead, she uses composite resin bonding that is safer, more aesthetic, and does not expand and contract with temperature changes. Additionally, she provides safe and effective removal by following specific recommendations and protocols from organizations such as the IAOMT (International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology). She is a holistic dentist that focuses on providing the best possible care for guests, including the use of SMART (safe mercury amalgam removal technique).
Mercury toxins are released when the amalgam fillings are heated or exposed. Because of this, it takes great care and attention to remove and replace these fillings for to reduce the risks of toxicity to those in the treatment room. This means that Dr. Deb Adams has to follow certain protocols and standards to protect everyone present during the removal. Silver mercury fillings (amalgams) removal, done safely, may include:
