Metal Free Fillings

If your teeth are filled with dark metal fillings, your smile is aging your appearance. Resin or composite teeth fillings are the best option for your smile and your overall dental health. Metal fillings, also known as amalgam fillings, can be damaging to your teeth. Metal fillings expand with heat and contract with cold, weakening the tooth wall over time. They can also lead to fractures along the natural tooth as well as allowing bacteria to enter causing recurrent tooth decay. With no mercury, composite fillings are a safer, stronger, more attractive and more enduring alternative to metal. They conservatively restore your teeth to strength and your smile to beauty.
