Cavities are common. In fact, 90% of adults aged 20 and older have had at least one. When you lose tooth material due to decay, that material needs to be replaced. Learn about tooth-colored restorations, as well as what you should do if you have silver fillings.
Tooth-colored restorations are onlays bonded to the teeth. The way they are bonded results in a tight fit, helping to strengthen the tooth.
The resin used in these restorations contains fluoride, which means that it can actually prevent decay. This means that, along with a beautiful smile, you also get healthier teeth and gums!
Ferber Dental Group is a mercury-free practice. That said, we know that many people have received silver mercury fillings in the past at other clinics. Along with being noticeably different from natural teeth, these fillings can also weaken the structure of the tooth.
Because they are 50% mercury, they are liable to corrode and leak, staining your teeth and gums. If you have silver fillings, we can replace them with tooth-colored restorations.
