Tooth Colored Fillings
MERCURY AND METAL FREE, GUARANTEED!
Silver-mercury amalgam was the most commonly used filling material for many years, and many dental practices still use it to this day. Even though amalgams are a sufficient solution for tooth restoration, they have particular shortcomings. One issue with using amalgams is the fact that they do not bond well with teeth. This means that decay can make it's way into teeth over time. Appearance is the biggest reason why so many of our patients are switching to white bonded fillings.
Most patients would rather not have an unattractive black filling in their tooth. Instead they would much rather have a natural-looking, white restoration that can help strengthen your teeth and does not contain harmful metals. Tooth colored restorations also help reduce or prevent decay because they bond very tightly with the healthy part of the tooth.
