Dental Fillings without Amalgam (No Silver Fillings)

What is Mercury-Free Dentistry in Morton Grove? No Amalgam (Silver) Fillings.

Dental Amalgam (Silver) is a tooth filling material that is approximately 50% Mercury, a highly polluting neurotoxin. Today, countries around the world are phasing out the use of amalgam … and phasing up the use of Mercury-Free Alternatives.

In the European Union, dental filling regulations have begun to take effect. Last year, the European Union adopted a regulation that banned amalgam use in children under the age of 15 years old, pregnant women, and breastfeeding mothers. The use of mercury-silver, or amalgam, dental fillings has been banned in Sweden, Denmark and Norway.

At ProCare Family Dental, we are a Mercury-Free, Mercury-Safe Dental Practice. Our office has embraced changes that eliminate mercury exposure and virtually eliminates the disposal of silver particles into the sewer system. That means:

We do not place any Mercury-containing fillings (Dental Amalgam) into peoples’ teeth.
We use white (tooth colored) composite resin to fill cavities.
When removal of defective mercury-based fillings is needed we replace them with composite resin.
