Safe Amalgam Removal with the SMART Protocol

At DuoSmile, we understand that what goes into your mouth affects your entire body which is why we follow the SMART protocol for patients who wish to remove silver/mercury fillings safely.

Conventional amalgam fillings contain about 50% mercury, a toxic heavy metal known to contribute to chronic inflammation and neurological, immune, and hormonal issues. That's why we offer a carefully controlled, biologically safe method for removal.

Our goal is to protect your whole system, not just your mouth.

What Is The SMART Protocol?

SMART (developed by the IAOMT – International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology) is a globally recognized method for safe and responsible mercury removal. At DuoSmile, we are trained and certified to follow this protocol using:

  • Full-body and airway protection for the client and team

  • High-volume suction with HEPA filtration

  • Rubber dam isolation to minimize exposure

  • Oxygen supply to avoid inhalation of mercury vapor

  • Mercury-separating suction and proper waste disposal

  • Ozone-based detoxification and tooth strengthening

Why Remove Amalgams?

Many patients choose to remove mercury fillings for a range of reasons:

  • Fatigue, brain fog, or immune dysfunction

  • Metal sensitivity or unexplained allergies

  • Detox preparation for chronic illness

  • Choosing non-toxic, biocompatible materials
