We use 100% fully digital x-rays. Digital x-rays require significantly less radiation exposure than traditional film-based, chemically processed x-rays. This protects your body and protects the environment by eliminating a lead-lining in film packets, and eradicating caustic processing chemicals. And we do not charge any extra for this service.
We use 100% mercury-free fillings. There is a vast amount of research on silver-mercury amalgam based fillings and their safety and efficacy in restoring decayed teeth. However, at Integrity Family Dentistry of Upper Dublin, Dr. Altomari chooses to eliminate this filling material for his patients. This provides an increased esthetic appeal and a decreased exposure to environmental mercury.
We use 100% paper-less charting. Although we cannot (unfortunately) eliminate all paper in the office, our commitment to the environment and your best interest compels us to keep working towards the goal of minimal environmental impact.
