| Commitment to the EnvironmentDental Amalgam is a mixture of about 50% methyl mercury and 50% other metals such as Nickel, Copper, Silver, and Molybdenum.

This amalgam cannot be extracted by wastewater treatment plants and contaminates local creeks and biosolids applied to land. In recent years a few states have begun to require the use of amalgam separators for dental offices that safely remove the amalgam. [Learn More]
