MANAGEMENT
• No treatment is required apart from establishing the diagnosis.
• Treatment for amalgam tattoos was originally limited to surgery with grafting of
mucosa or gingiva over the previous site of the tattoo.
• Advances in laser technology now allow amalgam tattoos to be removed by the Q-
switched ruby laser.
