I'd definitely and very much appeciate more info. respective of the removal protocol, only I hesitate to impose more on your time.

Only and if and when you may feel up to posting more, I would like that.

I did ask my dentist today about what I was told, as well. He was not nearly as in-depth as your elaboration yet he did pretty much share (an abbreviated version) mirroring yours.

He said, during removal, there is a mist / dust that releases, too.

I'm in the "early" stages of lotsa dental work ahead, but did tell him I want those fillings replaced. It will be great to make sure that the protocol is followed... so that I know what it entails and can, then, ask how it's done from the dentist before I "sign off."

Again: Thank you!
