Safer, more controlled amalgam removal with a holistic approach.
Your comfort and safety come first. Amalgam removal involves more than simply drilling out an old filling. We follow the SMART (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique), a minimally disruptive approach designed to reduce mercury exposure during the procedure.
Our method protects patients, dental staff, and the environment from toxic mercury vapours and particulates released during the treatment.
At Dove Holistic Dental Centre, we plan your treatment around your individual dental needs and preferences, medical history and long-term oral health goals, so you can expect tailored care every time you visit.
Every treatment is personalised, but the standard procedure may include the following steps.
We begin by examining your existing restorations, assessing your teeth and discussing the best way to remove or replace your amalgam fillings.
We explain your options clearly and create a personalised treatment plan. Before removal, we determine the right method and replacement material for your tooth.
The SMART technique minimises exposure to amalgam particles and vapour during the procedure. Our trained team takes every precaution to prevent disruption.
Once the existing amalgam has been removed, the tooth is cleaned thoroughly before restoring with a tooth-colored composite or ceramic material.
Your SMART Mercury Removal journey is planned around your comfort and goals.
Our team takes the time to explain what the procedure involves, whether it’s painful (it’s not), and what to expect. We combine a holistic approach with careful clinical dentistry to make the process as comfortable and controlled as possible.
From your initial consultation to your final restoration, the entire treatment is performed by our in-house team at our clinic.

Mercury Removal
We believe successful dentistry starts with detailed planning. Before removing an existing amalgam restoration, we assess the tooth, discuss your concerns and determine the most suitable replacement options.
Our priority isn't simply replacing a filling; it's never compromising your comfort or safety.
Not every amalgam filling needs to be removed. We’ll assess the condition of your existing restoration and discuss the right treatment based on your preferences.
SMART stands for the Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique, an advanced removal method that reduces exposure to amalgam particles and vapour during removal.
Amalgam removal involves handling mercury, a material considered extremely dangerous to human health, so appropriate precautions are important. Our SMART approach incorporates measures designed to prevent exposure during the procedure.
