Amalgam Removal Berlin

Many people wish to have an amalgam free mouth and are concerned about possible mercury deposits in their body caused by amalgam fillings. Since amalgam containing mercury is highly controversial from an environmental and a holistic perspective, we are pleased to support you on your path toward amalgam free dentistry by offering safe and professional amalgam removal in Berlin. 

For maximum safety, we recommend our specially developed treatment concept commonly used in environmental dentistry, known as amalgam replacement with fivefold protection. This protocol is based on human physiology and is designed to minimize exposure to mercury vapors during removal. Upon request, we are happy to prepare a personalized written treatment proposal tailored precisely to your individual needs. 

Many patients describe the transition to amalgam free restorations as liberating and beneficial, reporting a lighter and healthier overall feeling. 

Dental amalgam is a mixture of several metals, including silver, tin, copper, and mercury. The fivefold protection protocol refers to a comprehensive safety procedure designed to minimize mercury exposure during amalgam removal. 

The following protective measures are used: 

• Rubber dam: A protective barrier isolates the treated tooth from the rest of the mouth, preventing amalgam particles or vapors from entering the oral cavity.
• High performance suction: Specialized suction systems immediately remove mercury vapors and particles before they can be inhaled, ensuring clean breathing air throughout the procedure.
• Respiratory protection: An alternative air supply, usually delivered through a nasal system with oxygen, prevents the inhalation of mercury vapors during treatment.
• Cooling: Continuous water cooling keeps the amalgam and dental instruments at a low temperature, significantly reducing the release of mercury vapors.
• Protective clothing: Both patients and staff wear protective equipment such as safety goggles and special coverings to prevent contact with amalgam particles.
