If you are considering mercury filling removal. We at BioSmiles are highly trained in safely replacing these fillings with safer options. Mercury fillings, also known as amalgam fillings, are silver-colored and used to be the standard for filling cavities. Fortunately, they are not as commonly used today because of better, more natural-looking materials. However, many still live with these mercury-containing fillings.


Many choose to remove these amalgam fillings for both health and cosmetic reasons. The process to do so must be done by someone trained to do so to prevent toxic mercury exposure.
