Many adults have had
silver fillings placed into their teeth because they had
"cavities". Those metal fillings are called amalgams. Amalgam
fills the space where the decay in the tooth has been removed.
However over time, the amalgam corrodes and leaks which blackens the
silver, and many times the tooth.
There are also issues
regarding cracks induced by the metal fillings which can act like a wedge
splitting the tooth above the tissue or even damaging the nerve with
deeper fractures.
Dental technology has perfected tooth colored fillings that rival the
durability of time honored amalgam. Metal fillings are simply a thing of
the past. Dr. Behringer can recommend the filling that is best for you.
The Smile Clinic has over 20 years experience placing fillings that
restore the beauty and integrity of your natural tooth.
Please don't hesitate to call our office with any questions you may have
about the benefits of replacing silver amalgam fillings with invisible
composite fillings.
