Silver amalgam fillings have been in use for over 100 years. There is now NEW technology that allows a tooth to be filled with a strong chemically bonded material that can be matched to the color of your tooth making it appear nearly invisible. Research has proven that a tooth with a natural colored boned filling is 90-95% as strong as a natural non-cavity healthy tooth, whereas a silver filling is only 40-45% as strong as a non-cavity tooth. Tooth colored filling are beautiful in appearance, they are completed in a single visit, there’s less chance of the tooth cracking.
