Why do some people think that silver fillings are dangerous?
There is concern over the trace amounts of mercury that are found in the silver amalgam fillings. If you would like to explore your options to get rid of your silver filling, we’ll be happy to talk it over with you.
Do you replace old, silver fillings?
Many people have chosen to get rid of their silver fillings and replace them with a white-coloured filling. Get in touch with us and we’ll discuss your options!
Why are porcelain and composite more popular choices?
These materials are more conservative, which means they require less of your existing tooth structure to be removed. They’re integrated with the tooth and strong, so there is less risk that they will fracture, shrink, expand or crack.
