Should I replace silver amalgam fillings?

Many people decide to replace their older silver amalgam fillings over time with newer white "tooth-colored" fillings. In addition to having a more pleasing and natural tooth-like appearance, composite fillings do not have the sensitivity often associated with silver amalgam fillings. They are suited for smaller cavities and patients who may be allergic to metal fillings.

Please don't hesitate to call us with any questions you may have about the benefits of replacing silver amalgam fillings with invisible composite fillings.
