Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique

The SMART protocol includes the following steps:

• We isolate the affected with a rubber dam to prevent the patient from swallowing any mercury particles or vapor.
• The high-volume suction system is used to capture any mercury vapor or particles released during the removal process.
• We provide our staff with protective equipment, including a full-face respirator and protective clothing, to minimize their exposure to mercury vapor and particles.
• We provide our patients with an alternative air supply to breathe during the removal process to avoid inhaling any mercury vapor or particles.
• We remove the amalgam filling in large chunks rather than grinding it down to minimize the amount of mercury vapor and particles released.
• We dispose of the amalgam filling as hazardous waste, following strict guidelines to ensure it is handled and disposed of safely.
