Fillings

Silver amalgam fillings have been around for over 150 years. The material is inexpensive and easy to use, and for years was the most prevalent material used for back teeth to repair the damage from cavities. Now that people are much more conscious of appearances, the material is unpopular. There are also concerns arising over its mercury content, which is about 50%. While there is no accepted scientific evidence to prove that these fillings cause health problems, there are significant environmental concerns.

Tooth colored, resin fillings are quickly replacing the old-fashioned, silver amalgam fillings. They not only look better, but in most cases provide a better service.
