Silver amalgam fillings had been the only available solution for filling tooth cavities for several decades, yet they are now being eliminated from use due to their risk of causing health problems. These metal fillings contain high amounts of mercury, a neurotoxin that can lead to tooth sensitivity, as well as kidney malfunction and impaired brain development in vulnerable individuals.
Silver amalgam fillings had been the only available solution for filling tooth cavities for several decades, yet they are now being eliminated from use due to their risk of causing health problems. These metal fillings contain high amounts of mercury, a neurotoxin that can lead to tooth sensitivity, as well as kidney malfunction and impaired brain development in vulnerable individuals.
Today, white fillings are available as a healthier and more aesthetically appealing solution for restoring full functionality to an unhealthy tooth. These fillings are made from an entirely safe composite material, which not only protects your tooth from infection but also improves its shape, size and overall durability.
At Cityview Smiles Dental, your health and well-being are our top priority, which is why we offer strictly metal-free dentistry in our sophisticated dental office. Your dentist Dr. Genna Gelfand possesses the mastery and experience to provide you with white fillings that perfectly match the colour of your teeth for a seamless end result.
