METAL-FREE FILLINGS
Restoring the strength, function, and beauty of your tooth.
SILVER VS TOOTH-COLORED FILLINGS
Learn more about our superior restorations.
For many years, dental professionals have relied on silver fillings to restore decayed teeth. However, these fillings can lead to issues over time. As silver expands and contracts with hot and cold liquids, teeth may crack. Initially, these fractures are small and challenging to detect.
Eventually, deeper fractures can cause sensitivity to temperature and pressure when biting. They may also result in large portions of the tooth breaking off. In many cases, this situation necessitates a root canal procedure to alleviate the symptoms. Furthermore, restoring the tooth becomes increasingly difficult and costly.
A more proactive approach involves replacing silver fillings with new composite fillings or porcelain-bonded restorations before significant cracking occurs. This strategy often prevents further deterioration of the tooth. Dental composites adhere chemically to the tooth structure, binding it together and restoring its strength and integrity.
These composites are typically as strong as the original tooth and can be formulated to match your natural tooth color. You will appreciate how natural they feel alongside your original teeth.
