A step-by-step guide
This is an extended consultation and will begin with a full mouth examination followed by an assessment of your amalgam fillings. The fee for this consultation is £150. Dr Jones will then provide you with options to replace your fillings with biocompatible alternatives such as composite and porcelain. She will talk you through the process of removing the amalgam fillings and replacement restorations including the cost and time required for the procedure(s). Dr Kellie will be happy to answer your questions and provide you with a written treatment plan out-lining your care and next steps.
On the day of your procedure, the treatment room is set up with specialist equipment to ensure safety, including:
– High-volume air filtration
– Protective gowns for you and the team
– External air nasal masks to prevent inhaling mercury vapour
Amalgam fillings are carefully sectioned and removed in large pieces to reduce exposure. Your mouth is then thoroughly rinsed with water and a chlorella-rich solution to aid detoxification.
A dental dam protects your mouth while a specialised aerosol vacuum captures mercury vapour.
Your fillings will be restored with BPA-free composite materials or prepared for porcelain restorations. Dr Kellie may also recommend nutritional support to aid detoxification and enhance your overall health.
