A number of patients have been asking me what kind of bonded composite material I use after I safely remove old, mercury-containing fillings. I use bonded composite agents that contain NO bisphenyls and NO methyacrylates, or their derivatives. Furthermore, I use a thick ‘dental dam’ when removing the mercury from one’s old filling, and also offer uni-dose capsules containing the bonded material. Uni-dose means these capsules containing the composite material are used once, then disposed of. This ensures safety and a tremendous reduction in potential contamination to the patient.
