Mercury Free Dentistry

All silver-colored fillings or dental amalgams are comprised of approximately 50% mercury (source). Dr. Walker understands the harmful effects of dental mercury fillings to patient health and the environment.

As a mercury-free dentist, he limits and prevents mercury exposure by safely removing existing silver fillings and replacing them with non-mercury alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

Let us give you the answers.

What does general dentistry include?

General dentistry covers your routine dental care, like exams, cleanings, fillings, and preventive treatments. It’s the foundation of keeping your teeth and gums healthy over time.

How often should I visit the dentist?

Most people do well with a visit every six months. Regular checkups help catch small issues early and keep your smile in good shape.

What happens during a regular dental visit?

A typical visit includes an exam, a professional cleaning, and sometimes X-rays. Your dentist checks for any signs of cavities, gum issues, or other concerns.

When is a deep cleaning needed?

A deeper cleaning is recommended when there’s buildup below the gum line or early signs of gum disease. It helps remove bacteria that regular cleanings can’t reach.

Are tooth-colored fillings a better option?

Many people prefer tooth-colored fillings because they blend in naturally with your teeth. They also provide strong support while keeping your smile looking more natural.
