At Eternal Smiles Dental Centre, we use advanced protocols, rubber dam protection, high filtration suction and biocompatible materials to remove old silver fillings safely and comfortably.
For tooth safe coloured fillings, we use BPA and Fluoride free for Rebecca, Sumiya, and James, the material is placed into the hole in layers, with a special light being shone on each layer to a better setting process.
We will then shape the safe BPA and Fluoride Free filling, so that it looks as realistic as possible. We will make sure it does not interfere with the way your teeth meet when you bite and chew
Ready to replace your old silver fillings?
Old silver (amalgam) fillings often contain mercury and can crack teeth over time. Many patients choose to replace them for:
A healthier, mercury-free alternative
Better cosmetic appearance (natural tooth-coloured finish)
Reduced risk of cracks or leakage under old fillings
Peace of mind when choosing a holistic approach
To correctly remove and replace amalgam fillings it is critical to assure that you will not absorb more of the material in the removal process. We are a holistic dentist removing amalgams safely. Dr Singh uses safe composite fillngs.
Our dentist follows a step-by-step protocol to protect your health:
Pre-treatment assessment (tooth health, X-rays, suitability check)
Rubber dam isolation to protect your mouth from debris
High-volume suction to capture vapours and particles
Special sectioning technique — we cut the amalgam into chunks to avoid excessive drilling
Immediate replacement with a modern, mercury-free, Bpa and Fluoride free tooth-coloured filling
Polishing & bite check for comfort
Aftercare advice for optimal healing
James had his silver fillings replaced with Bpa and Fluoride ceramic inlays.
Rebecca had her silver fillings removed. We then replaced the old amalgam fillings with quality, strong reliable composite resin restoration materials or metal-free porcelains inlays
We use high-quality composite materials that are:
BPA-free
Tooth-coloured
Strong & long-lasting
Bonded for minimal tooth removal
Suitable for patients seeking a holistic approach
If needed, we can discuss ceramic inlays/onlays for larger restorations.
