The use of ugly, black amalgam fillings is no longer something that needs to be endured, with the development of neutral looking and feeling tooth-coloured fillings.
Apart from the unappealing look and potential health complications associated with amalgam fillings, they can also be a cause of teeth fracturing and discolouring over time. Composed from typically fifty percent Mercury, it has been clinically proven that dangerous mercury vapours can continually leak from older restorations and may result in serious health complications. Luckily, tooth-coloured fillings can be used to replace older fillings.
Tooth-coloured fillings offer the same strength as natural tooth enamel and do not stain teeth. The surfaces of the fillings are naturally smooth and therefore prohibit the ability of food particles to cling to the outer layer.
Enabling you to maintain your beautiful smile even where restorations are required, tooth-coloured fillings are the ideal solution to repairing the associated cavities and areas of tooth that have suffered from tooth decay.
Virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth, tooth-coloured fillings make your teeth appear whiter, brighter and healthier than before.
