Mercury Free (Amalgam Filling Free), Mercury Safe, Holistic, Cosmetic and Family Dentistry
About Our Mercury Safe Dental Practice
Dr. Batool Rizvi's "Mercury Safe Dentist" office is located in Manhasset, NY 11030. She has practiced healthy and mercury free (amalgam silver filling free) and mercury safe dentistry for many years and believes that optimal health is a state in which the mouth and the rest of our being is in balance and harmony. Dental disease and other oral health issues, can upset that balance and create disharmony in the rest of the body. Dr. Rizvi is dedicated to practicing holistic, healthy dentistry.
Her mission is to treat her patients in the most healthy, caring, holistic way possible and to share information about dental wellness with her patients so that they may make educated decisions about their oral health. She also fully understands the important relationship of oral to overall health and realizes that; "You cannot be truly healthy without good oral health!"
Safe Amalgam/Silver Filling Removal Protocols
As your Oral Health Doctor, she is aware that mercury vapor and dental infections can have a negative impact on oral and overall health. Because of this concern, our office focuses on patient education and strive to remove mercury amalgam (silver) fillings in a safe way. For information about why it's important to use a mercury safe dentist, Click Here.
To accomplish this, we utilize safe amalgam removal protocols based on recommendations of the International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD), the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), The Huggins Protocol, and other prominent biological and holistic dental organizations.

A Personal Note from Dr. Tom
Dr. Rizvi practiced with Dr. Norman Bressack, whom I've known for many years and have great respect for. I believe Dr. Rizvi to be a well trained, experienced and skilled holistic dentist. I am impressed with the depth of her knowledge and understanding about the critically important relationship of oral to overall health and his effort to educate his patients. She utilizes her knowledge and training when designing dental treatment plans for her patients.
Her ongoing post-graduate training in holistic, cosmetic and traditional dentistry and her concern for the safe removal of amalgam fillings makes her ideally suited to remove and replace them. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a caring health focused, mercury free and mercury safe dentist.
Dr. Rizvi is active in the efforts to educate the public that dental treatment is critically important to overall health and to advance healthy, mercury safe, and biocompatible dentistry. She is also a Charter Member of the International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD). When you visit her office, please let her know where you found out about her and say hello to her from me. Thanks!
