Tooth Colored Fillings
New technology has changed the appearance of fillings. Frequently, the color of the alloys changed the appearance of the tooth in terms of tone color. Mercury-silver alloy fillings have numerous ingredients, including nickel and copper, and is a 150+year old technology. The alloys eventually turn dark (even black), and with thermal expansion and contraction, weaken the strength of the tooth. We use a mercury-free composite-resin material created to the custom color of your tooth. The result is a filling indistinguishable from the surrounding tooth.
