At our Center Hočevar, we are committed to providing the best possible dental care and health for our patients.
We recognize that the presence of metallic materials in the oral cavity can affect an individual's overall health.
Amalgam fillings, which have historically been a standard solution for treating tooth decay, contain mercury and other metals, raising concerns about their impact on the environment and health.
Recent research indicates potential links between the presence of mercury in amalgam fillings and certain health issues such as allergic reactions, autoimmune disorders, and overall health deterioration.
We employ special protective equipment during procedures to ensure that patients are not exposed to harmful vapors and to eliminate the possibility of ingesting amalgam residues.
After the removal of amalgam fillings, meticulous cleaning, disinfection, and preparation of the tooth for replacement follow. We use high-quality composite materials to create direct composite inlays, precisely matched to the shape and color of the patient's tooth, providing an aesthetically pleasing and durable solution that is also biocompatible.
Additionally, we offer comprehensive counseling on the long-term effects of metallic materials in the oral cavity and various options for alternative fillings that are more healthy and environmentally friendly. Our goal is to provide superior care tailored to the individual needs and expectations of each patient.
