White Dental Fillings

Fillings that Enhance a Smile

Many patients are familiar with the amalgam filling material of silver-mercury used by dental practices for many years. They work as a restoration but with some shortcomings. The metals do not bond tightly enough, allowing decay to set in. Patients are not happy with the appearance of a dark plug that contrasts with the color of their teeth. It is not aesthetically pleasing and can be very visible when talking or laughing.

We do not use metal fillings at our practice, but offer modern composite resin fillings that bond very tightly to tooth structure to reduce the possibility of decay and also give added strength to the entire tooth. They can be made to match the shade of the natural tooth, making it invisible to create a pleasing smile.
