Amalgam removal

Serving patients throughout Bath and surrounding areas

For more than 150 years amalgam has been used to repair millions of teeth across the world, but advanced dental techniques and materials have led to an increasing number of patients requesting their traditional fillings are replaced with a more modern and subtle alternative.

How amalgam removal works

While existing amalgam fillings are durable and safe, many people are now looking to replace their traditional fillings with a mercury-free composite that will blend seamlessly with the natural tooth. In many cases this is a straightforward process but before any treatment your dentist will need to examine your teeth to assess whether amalgam removal is in your best interest.

While the level of mercury in amalgam is very low when it is set into the tooth, removing the filling has the potential to increase exposure levels. During the removal process we use specific tools and techniques to shield the surrounding area, reduce contact time with loose amalgam and keep any risks to an absolute minimum.

Supplements such as Vitamin C, activated charcoal and selenium are associated with removing mercury build up, and these can be taken in the weeks leading up to amalgam removal. Glutathione supplements may also be used for a short time after treatment. Your dentist will offer advice.

What happens next?

Once the fillings have been carefully and safely removed we will refill the tooth using a combination of glass ionomers and composite. This modern alternative to amalgam bonds directly to the tooth, is mercury free, and the end result will blend with the existing tooth for an entirely natural result.

I have always gone to Green Park and will continue to do so where possible. The staff have always been welcoming and friendly and the practice itself is lovely. My dentist Aarifa is incredible and I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Emergency appointment for an abscess with Dr Aarifa Hussain. I was treated with a high level of care, patience and encouragement throughout a painful episode needing antibiotics, and abscess drainage. Dr Hussain took the extra step of following up with an after care email and 6pm phone call to check how I was doing. My subsequent treatment was delivered with the same attention to detail. She is a fantastic dentist. I completely recommend Dr Hussain.

I have been with Green Park for a couple of years now under Sherry Mowla's care, and I have to say I am most pleased. The quality of treatment and advice I have received has surpassed the expectations set by the pricing. As someone who was skeptical at first due to much less recommendable experiences at other practices throughout my years, I can happily say that you will be treated with respect and care here, at least as a patient of Sherry's.

I love the special care that is taken over my teeth, which I put down to such a great service by Robert and his team. I’m sure this is why I have not had a lot of problems with my teeth over the years and I’m always blown away by the amazing technology that helps explain what is going on. An excellent service by Robert, the dental assistant and the receptionists.
