Mercury-Free Fillings: Safe and Aesthetic Restorations
We prioritize your health and safety by offering mercury-free, tooth-colored fillings. These composite resin restorations are not only safer but also blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring a beautiful and functional smile.
Advantages of Mercury-Free Fillings:
- Aesthetic Appeal: Matches the color of your natural teeth.
- Durability: Strong and long-lasting when properly cared for.
- Safe for Your Health: Free from mercury and other potentially harmful materials.
- Minimally Invasive: Requires less removal of healthy tooth structure compared to amalgam fillings.
If you need a filling or want to replace old amalgam fillings, our mercury-free restorations provide a healthier and more attractive solution.
Common Dental Problems: Solutions You Can Trust
Many patients face common dental issues at some point in their lives. The good news is that most problems are treatable and preventable with early detection and proper care.
Common Problems We Address:
- Tooth Decay: Cavities caused by plaque and bacteria buildup.
- Gum Disease: Inflammation or infection of the gums, which can lead to tooth loss if untreated.
- Tooth Sensitivity: Discomfort when consuming hot, cold, or sweet foods and drinks.
- Bad Breath (Halitosis): Often caused by poor oral hygiene or underlying conditions.
- Jaw Pain/TMJ Disorders: Pain or discomfort in the jaw joint, often due to grinding or stress.
