Superior Form and Function: Metal-Free Fillings<\/o:p><\/b><\/div>\n

<\/b><\/div>\n
Dental fillings <\/b>are the most common restoration today, repairing teeth that have been affected by tooth decay or injury. Previously, many fillings <\/b>were made of an amalgam that contained silver, mercury, and other metals. While these restorations certainly served their primary purpose well enough, there came a time when both patients and doctors began to recognize some drawbacks. For one, metal fillings<\/b> can actually change in size due to changes in temperature. This can lead to microscopic fractures in the tooth\u2019s enamel, a problem that can become more serious over time. <\/o:p><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Though research has yet to definitively prove that the mercury content in amalgam fillings<\/b> is harmful, many health-conscious patients choose metal-free fillings<\/b> anyway just to remove the possibility of potential side effects. Our composite resin fillings<\/b> are color-matched to look completely natural, blending in with the shade of your smile seamlessly.<\/o:p><\/div>\n
