The Hidden Risks of Silver Fillings and How to Remove Them Safely

Mar 01, 2025 03:53PM ● By Jerome Bilaos

For decades, silver amalgam fillings were the go-to solution for cavities. But do you know that these fillings contain 50% mercury — yes, the toxic heavy metal mercury. Studies have revealed something even more disturbing: mercury vapor from amalgam fillings can leak out into the body over time, likely causing damage to your nervous system, immune function, and overall health.

The professionals at Holistic Dental Center of New Jersey realize the concerns regarding mercury exposure and provide a safe, proven approach for its removal by adhering to the SMART (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique) protocol.  This more comprehensive approach aims at minimizing mercury exposure to both patients and dental staff alike. It includes high-volume suction, oxygen supplementation, special barriers, air filtration, and more for a guaranteed toxin-free experience.

WHY REMOVE MERCURY FILLINGS?

Many patients report feeling relief from chronic fatigue, brain fog, headaches, and other unexplained symptoms after safe amalgam removal. It is well-known that full-body health relies on oral health since the mouth is the gateway to our entire system, so toxic materials like mercury can have far-reaching effects on well-being.

If you have silver fillings and are concerned about their effect on your health, The Holistic Dental Center of NJ is ready to help patients take this step toward better health. Call today to schedule a consultation and learn how HDC can safely and effectively remove mercury fillings.
