Safe Amalgam Removement & Ceramic Inlay
Structured material change with a biological focus
Replacing existing fillings can be beneficial for various reasons—for example, as part of a new treatment plan, to address functional needs, or as part of a holistic treatment approach.
At our biological dental office in Willingen, the removal of existing materials is performed under controlled conditions. We place particular emphasis on a gentle approach and the subsequent use of biocompatible alternatives.
For Medic Dentist Alina Ionita, amalgam removal is more than just the replacement of a filling. She combines careful protective measures with a customized, metal-free restoration whenever possible.
We pay attention to:
Controlled and as gentle as possible removal of existing fillings
- Complete isolation and shielding of the treatment area with a rubber dam
- Targeted suction directly at the treatment area
- Additional filtration of the room air using the IQAir system to reduce aerosols and vapors
- Follow-up restoration that is as metal-free as possible, for example, with a ceramic inlay
- Careful preparation for the subsequent restoration
- Individual selection of materials that are as biocompatible as possible
Treatment Plan
How the safe Amalgam Removement works
Before treatment begins, the treatment area is carefully prepared. In addition, the IQAir system is used to filter the indoor air.
The tooth being treated is completely isolated using a rubber dam and shielded from the rest of the mouth.
The existing amalgam filling is removed in a step-by-step, controlled manner. Targeted suction directly at the tooth helps to capture any resulting particles and aerosols as directly as possible.
Follow-up treatment with a ceramic inlay or a suitable alternative
For whom is a change in material a good idea?
Replacing existing fillings is not a standardized procedure but is always planned on a case-by-case basis. A structured material replacement may be advisable, particularly when a new restoration is planned or when the patient requests metal-free or mercury-free materials. Careful planning and clear coordination of the individual treatment steps are essential.
Medic Dentist Alina Ionita always assesses on a case-by-case basis whether an existing amalgam filling should actually be removed. Not every intact filling needs to be replaced simply because of the material it’s made of. Decisive factors include the condition of the restoration, the dental findings, and your personal treatment situation.
We provide comprehensive advice on your options and work with you to develop a care plan that meets your needs.
A change in material can be particularly useful:
when metal-free restorations are desired
- as part of a biologically oriented treatment approach
- when an existing amalgam filling needs to be replaced and a metal-free alternative is desired
- when a change in material is to be deliberately planned following an individual consultation
- for aesthetic reasons
- when a long-term, stable restoration is desired
Detoxification with chlorella as a complementary treatment
As part of our biological treatment approach, amalgam removal can be supplemented, upon request, with a personalized support program. Among other things, we use chlorella—a freshwater algae that is frequently used in biological dentistry in conjunction with biologically oriented treatment approaches following metal removal.
The use of Chlorella is not intended as a standalone treatment, but rather as a complementary component of our overall biological treatment plan. Whether such support is appropriate for you depends on your individual situation, the scope of the treatment, and your personal preferences.
Medic Dentist Alina Ionita will discuss in detail with you which form of support is appropriate for you during your biological consultation. Together, we will develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific circumstances.
