Abstrakt: The amalgam tattoo can often result in an unsightly cosmetic appearance, especially in the maxillary anterior region. The predominant treatment for an amalgam tattoo is the free gingival graft, which also results in a poor cosmetic appearance. The authors would like to review the pathogenesis of the amalgam tattoo and present a new technique that leads to a pleasing cosmetic result.
