Replace your old silver fillings with invisible tooth coloured composites
Amalgam fillings are also known as silver fillings and are a dental material used to fill cavities caused by tooth decay. They usually consist of a mixture of metals, although mercury is the most commonly used and gives amalgam fillings their distinctive silver look.
So what is actually wrong with mercury fillings you may ask? Well, apart from the fact they aren’t the most natural looking, they’re made of hard metal and may cause your teeth to crack. This can lead to root canal treatments, costly crowns, a full tooth rebuild, and you could even lose a tooth.
Because they’re metal and metals conduct, if an amalgam filling is deep, it will absorb heat from the food and drinks you eat which can lead to sensitivity within the tooth. Not only that, they leach out grey liquid, which can stain the rest of your tooth and make the rest of your smile look unsightly.
Above all else, mercury is a known neurotoxin that can impact cognitive function and neurological health. Removing amalgam fillings can reduce your exposure to mercury vapour and minimise potential health risks, which is why we would always recommend removing them.
Personalisation is at the heart of what we do here at Smile Stories. Before getting started on amalgam filling removal, we carry out an extremely thorough evaluation of your oral health and discuss your specific concerns and smile goals. This allows us to create a tailored treatment plan that meets your individual needs.

They have acquired knowledge and techniques from the most renowned professionals in the field, and our team always follows a meticulous process for removing amalgam fillings and total teeth restoration. We maintain the highest standards and never compromise on any steps, ensuring the longevity and quality of our work. This commitment allows us to provide long-lasting and natural looking tooth restorations that can potentially last a lifetime.

Some people choose to have their amalgam fillings removed due to aesthetic personal preferences or concerns about mercury exposure. People also may choose to get them removed if their fillings are old, deteriorating, or causing discomfort.
Amalgam filling removal is not always necessary, however, if you have concerns about your fillings or if they are causing problems, it is always wise to explore removal options with ust to determine the best course of action for your dental health.
A more natural, longer lasting alternative to amalgam fillings are composite resin rebuilds (tooth-coloured fillings). The materials used for tooth-coloured fillings are designed to look like natural teeth, which is great for those who are concerned about the appearance or safety of amalgam fillings.
Amalgam filling removal is a safe procedure at Smile Stories. Our highly-trained dentists take measures to minimise any minor risks and will always use protective barriers and adequate ventilation during the procedure.
