At Rocky Ridge Dental Associates, your overall well-being is just as important as your oral health. That is why we take a holistic approach to dental care, focusing on treatments that support the entire body. Our mercury-free dentistry is part of that commitment. We believe in safe, biocompatible options that minimize exposure to harmful materials and promote long-term wellness.

One key part of our holistic approach is the removal of old silver (amalgam) fillings that contain mercury. These fillings were once widely used but can release small amounts of mercury vapor over time. Our dentists and team use trusted techniques and advanced safety protocols to remove these fillings in a controlled, health-conscious manner.

Mercury-Free and Mindful of Your Health

Choosing mercury-free dentistry is about more than just materials – it is about prioritizing your safety, comfort and peace of mind. We believe that patients deserve choices that align with their personal values and long-term health goals. When removing amalgam fillings, our team uses high-volume suction, filtration systems and protective measures to reduce exposure and support safe replacement.

Benefits of our holistic approach include:

  • Mercury-free materials that support systemic health
  • Safe removal of silver fillings using advanced safety techniques
  • Emphasis on biocompatibility for personalized treatment
  • Treatment planning that considers overall wellness
  • A comfortable, low-stress experience in a supportive setting

We understand that every patient is different. Our dentists and team take time to understand your goals and create a treatment plan that reflects your individual needs. Whether you are seeking to replace old metal fillings or avoid certain materials altogether, we are here to help.
