After decay is removed from a tooth, something must be placed in that space to give strength back to the tooth. Fillings: Fillings are the most common restorative procedure. | White fillings: Our office only uses mercury-free white fillings. They are an attractive, durable alternative to silver (amalgam) fillings. White fillings are made of a strong composite resin that is matched to the surrounding tooth color. In the past, white fillings were placed only on front teeth, but recently a stronger more durable material has been developed that can withstand the chewing pressure of back teeth. |
