SAFE AMALGAM REMOVAL
At Advanced Dental Centre, we offer safe and effective removal of amalgam fillings using a
protocol called IAOMT (International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology).
The IAOMT protocol includes the following steps to ensure the safe removal of amalgam fillings:
1. Isolation: We use a rubber dam to isolate the tooth being treated, which helps to prevent the amalgam filling from being swallowed or inhaled during removal.
2. Specialised equipment: We use high-speed suction, a special dental drill, and a special carbide bur to remove the amalgam filling with minimal heat and vibration.
3. Replacement: We offer biocompatible restorative materials, such as composite resin or porcelain, to replace the amalgam filling.
Our goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for our patients while removing their amalgam fillings. If you have any concerns about the safety of your amalgam fillings or wish to have them removed, please contact our office to schedule a consultation. We will work with you to create a personalised treatment plan that meets your needs and ensures your safety.
