Mercury Filling Removal
Safe Amalgam Removal
If you are considering mercury filling removal, we at BioSmiles are highly trained in safely replacing these fillings with safer options. As a natural dentist in Boise, ID, and a biological dentist in Boise, ID 83716, we specialize in holistic approaches to dental care. Mercury fillings, also known as amalgam fillings, are silver-colored and were once 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 must be done by someone trained to prevent toxic mercury exposure. As a holistic dentist in Boise, ID 83716, Dr. Petersen has been highly trained and certified in SAFE Amalgam Removal (IAOMT). This safe protocol ensures the safe removal of mercury without exposing you and our staff to dangerous mercury vapors and particles. After removing your mercury fillings, we replace them with biocompatible, tooth-colored restorations that are both safe and aesthetically pleasing.
Dental Allergy Testing
We provide dental allergy testing and safe, biocompatible materials to replace these old mercury fillings. We use BPA free composites and other restorative options to replace old amalgam fillings. To schedule a consultation for mercury filling removal, don't hesitate to contact our compassionate team at BioSmiles.
Mercury Health Concerns
Many patients want to remove their amalgam fillings because of the impact mercury may have on their health. Mercury is a neurotoxin that can cause headaches, insomnia, respiratory problems, and organ damage. Over time it is suspected these old fillings can leach mercury, especially during chewing and grinding.
