Removing And Replacing Old Metal Fillings

   
When a new cavity needs filling, the vast majority of patients now choose tooth-colored composite fillings. Many patients also opt for the removal of their amalgam fillings as well. These patients want to enhance their cosmetic appearance by ridding their mouths of unsightly silver fillings and replacing them with tooth-colored composite fillings. This simple procedure is an easy way to make a big difference in your smile.
 
  
 

White fillings, also known as composite fillings, restore decayed teeth and repair tooth defects, as well as provide a healthier treatment option than traditional silver amalgam fillings. Composite white fillings can be used on front or back teeth.

Tooth-colored composite fillings are a safer, stronger, more attractive and more enduring alternative to metal and when combined with air abrasion drill-free dentistry  Dr Stan can provide you with  a pain free and quick treatment to replace old fillings.

There are many reasons to use composite fillings in lieu of silver fillings:>
  • amalgam (silver) fillings can corrode and leave unseemly stains
  • composite fillings can be matched to the color of the tooth, and therefore blend into the surrounding tooth structure
  • composite fillings are especially suited for small cavities
  • some people are allergic to amalgam fillings
  • composite restorations can be adhesively sealed (bonded) into the cavity, often allowing the dentist to make a more conservative repair to the teeth
