AmalgamA Risk to Your Health

Dear Patients,

Did you know that amalgam is considered hazardous waste after removal from the mouth and must not be disposed of in sewage systems? Nevertheless, it has been a widely used filling material in dentistry for decades.

What is amalgam?

What is amalgam?

Amalgam is a metallic mixture consisting of approximately 50% mercury – one of the most toxic elements for the human organism. Other components include copper, silver and tin. Amalgam is now banned or no longer used in many countries.

The main problem is the constant release of mercury, triggered by:

  • Chemical decomposition (corrosion)
  • Heat from eating or drinking
  • Mechanical stress, such as chewing or teeth grinding

Mercury can enter the body via the oral mucosa. In the digestive tract, it is partially converted into organic mercury. This easily penetrates body cells and can cause lasting damage there. When these compounds encounter the breakdown products of certain germs, highly toxic compounds can be formed.

The US health authority ATSDR (Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry) points to scientifically proven links between amalgam, chronic diseases and an increased risk of cancer.

Our solution:  safe amalgam removal

At the Alpstein Clinic, we do not use amalgam at all. Instead, we focus on holistic amalgam removal, which is medically supervised, individually planned and supplemented by targeted detoxification procedures. Our amalgam removal goes far beyond simply removing old fillings. Our concept combines dental care with biological and systemic support.

The restoration is carried out in three structured steps.

1. Safe removal with protective measures

  • Using rubber dam, clean-up suction and respiratory protection
  • To minimize mercury exposure during the procedure

2. Individual pre- and post-treatment

  • In close coordination with our medical team
  • Based on your personal exposure situation

3. Targeted systemic detoxification

  • With antioxidants, trace elements and organ-supportive substances
  • Optionally supplemented by individual infusions
  • Supported by laboratory-based therapy monitoring

If mercury is not actively removed, it can remain in the body for years and cause silent inflammation or systemic stress.

Erholung fördern und Abwehr anregen: Mit einer grossen Palette an unspezifischen und spezifischem Immunstimulanzien, immunstärkenden Massnahmen wie Hyperthermie, Infusionen, Ozontherapie und Colonhydroptherapie stimulieren wir die humorale und zelluläre Abwehr. Das Anregen und Vitalisieren aller Organe und körperlicher Strukturen sind Komponenten unseres ganzheitlichen Konzeptes.

Nächste Stufe

Zweite StufeAusleiten und Entlasten

Nun konzentrieren wir uns auf ein ausgeglichenes inneres Milieu des Körpers und schaffen damit die Basis für einen Heilungserfolg. Wichtige Instrumente sind dabei die Zahnsanierung, die Darmsanierung oder die Entgiftung der Organe. In dieser Phase setzen wir die Blut-Plasma-Doppelmembran-Filtration (INUSpherese®) und eine ganzheitliche Schmerztherapie ein und reduzieren schrittweise nebenwirkungsreiche Medikamente der konventionellen Medizin.

Step fourHarmonize

In order to bring body, mind and soul back into harmony, you need to accept and appreciate yourself. At the Alpstein Clinic, we offer you an ideal environment in which you can find yourself and recharge your batteries.

Stage threeRegenerate and stimulate

In this step, we promote recovery and stimulate the immune system: We stimulate the humoral and cellular defenses with a wide range of non-specific and specific immune stimulants, immune-boosting measures such as hyperthermia, infusions, ozone therapy and colon hydrotherapy. The stimulation and vitalization of all organs and physical structures are components of our holistic concept.

Step twoDetox and relieve

We now concentrate on creating a balanced internal environment in the body, thereby creating the basis for successful healing. Important instruments here are dental cleansing, intestinal cleansing and detoxification of the organs. In this phase, we use blood plasma double membrane filtration (INUSpheresis® ) and holistic pain therapy and gradually reduce the use of conventional medicines that have many side effects.

Stage oneAnalyse causes

In the first step, we work with you to get to the bottom of the possible causes of your complaints. We examine possible interference fields, toxic loads, environmental factors, deficiencies, malnutrition and stress factors. This is followed by a comprehensive physical and dental examination. This is followed by further diagnostic measures such as blood, stool, saliva and urine tests, thermography and other tools.
