Our Mission
Protecting patients, staff, dental offices, and the environment.12
Our healthy evacuation system is designed to keep dental mercury out of the wastewater stream while giving dental offices a cleaner, safer, and more convenient way to manage amalgam waste.
Traditional systems often require staff to handle filters, containers, and waste materials. Anterior Quest provides a hands-off solution where our team manages removal, transportation, treatment, and support.
Why It Matters
Dental wastewater can contain amalgam particles and mercury. If not properly contained and treated, that waste may enter public wastewater systems and contribute to environmental contamination.
Cleaner Water
Designed to reduce mercury contamination risk.
Less Staff Handling
No messy filter changes or direct waste contact.
Simple Compliance
A managed solution for responsible wastewater handling.
What We Believe
Built on excellence, commitment, and responsibility.
Excellence
Every product and every customer interaction is held to a high standard. We believe the quality of our work should be reflected in the results we deliver.
Commitment
Long-term success comes from commitment to people, customers, employees, communities, and the environment.
Responsibility
Every member of our organization shares responsibility for advancing our mission and helping protect valuable natural resources.
Our Process
A hands-off solution for dental offices.
Anterior Quest knows how messy and inconvenient dealing with filters and traditional amalgam separators can be. Our process is designed to minimize disruption and remove the burden from dental office staff.
Collection
Anterior Quest staff arrives at the dental office and removes amalgam waste from the containment system.
Transport
Waste is transported by Anterior Quest to a centralized treatment facility without contact from office staff.
Treatment
The waste is carefully processed to remove mercury and prepare water for responsible release.
Support
Dental offices receive ongoing support while reducing waste handling, odor, mess, and paperwork burden.
Environmental Stewardship
Pioneering the future of water preservation.
Anterior Quest goes beyond traditional containment by focusing on responsible collection, treatment, and water preservation.
Our process is designed to help prevent dental mercury from entering the wastewater stream while giving dental practices a responsible solution for amalgam waste management.
Installing an Anterior Quest system is not only a strong option for dental facilities, it is also a better option for the environment.
Beyond minimum requirements.
Current regulations require dentists to use amalgam separator systems designed to remove a percentage of solids. Anterior Quest believes responsible wastewater management should go further by focusing on containment, treatment, and environmental preservation.

Responsible Service
Collection, transport, treatment, and support.
Patients & Office Staff
Supporting a safer, cleaner dental environment.
Proper evacuation system maintenance and wastewater handling can help reduce risks related to suction performance, backflow, odor, contamination, and unnecessary chemical exposure.
Backflow Risk
Slow suction can allow saliva and water to build up during treatment. Maintaining a healthier evacuation system helps reduce this concern.
Organic Waste Buildup
Organic waste can create odor and hygiene concerns. AQ-Solution helps digest buildup and supports cleaner evacuation lines.
Chemical Exposure
Reducing reliance on harsh chemicals can help create a healthier workplace for dental teams and a more sustainable practice environment.
Best Practices
Responsible amalgam waste disposal starts in the office.
In addition to using a containment system, dental offices should follow safe handling practices when managing amalgam and wastewater.
Avoid bleach and chlorine-based cleaners
Use cleaners designed to minimize the dissolution of amalgam instead of flushing contaminants downstream.
Never dump amalgam waste down drains
Amalgam waste should not be disposed of through sinks or toilets.
Recycle whenever possible
Recycling and responsible treatment help protect the environment and reduce disposal risks.
