MERCURY AND METAL FREE DENTISTRY
FACTS
A dental mercury amalgam filling (silver filling) consists of over 50% mercury, approximately 30% silver, and lesser amounts of copper and tin. The mercury component of the mercury amalgam filling has been scientifically demonstrated to be more toxic than lead, cadmium or arsenic. Mercury is the most toxic non-radioactive substance known to man.
REMOVAL
We safely remove toxic dental metals (including mercury amalgam, metal crowns and bridges) which may be biologically incompatible. Our dentists employ multiple methods to keep you comfortable and safe from the toxic by-products generated during the metal removal process.
SAFETY
Patient-centered dental care is founded on the individuality of each patient’s values and needs. We recognize not all dental materials and procedures are compatible with every person. Biocompatibility testing of dental materials can be performed to determine which dental materials are safe for you, your immune system, and your overall well-being.
FLUORIDE FREE
At Wellspring Dental Health, we do not promote the use of fluoride containing dental products or in-office fluoride treatments. Current science illuminates the potential detrimental effects fluoride may have on your body as a whole, which is substantial and warrants concern. Health risks which have been scientifically linked to fluoride toxicity include cognitive defects, lower IQ, neurotoxic effects including ADHD, osteoarthritis, osteosarcoma, skeletal fluorosis, dental fluorosis, and thyroid dysfunction.
At Wellspring Dental Health, we believe proper nutrition is the foundation for all health, including dental and oral health. In addition, dental hygiene practices such as brushing, flossing, and oral irrigation are also necessary. Above and beyond that, there are dental products that can assist in cavity prevention and gum health. Our office advocates for oral health products which are natural alternatives to conventional fluoride containing products. We also provide great recipes for organic, all-natural, eco-friendly toothpastes and mouth rinses which you can make at home. Ask us about your options for natural fluoride-free dental products, we would love to discuss which one might be right for you! For more information on the science of fluoride toxicity:
