Natural tooth colored fillings are used as an alternative to traditional mercury amalgam fillings. Because composite fillings are bonded to a tooth only the diseased part of the tooth needs to be removed allowing the tooth to maintain much of its strength and integrity. Amalgam fillings are placed after removing large parts of the healthy tooth. Over time, a crown may be needed because the tooth is weaker and subsequently cracks. In addition, some patients have noticed less sensitivity than when an amalgam filling was placed. With natural tooth colored fillings you will have a beautiful, strong smile.
