Replace Silver Fillings With White Tooth
Fillings
 Many
people have had silver fillings placed into their teeth because they
had "cavities". These silver 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. This is easily seen as soon as
a patient opens his or her mouth and is usually a source of
embarrassment for the patient.
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.
