White Fillings

White Fillings


While metal amalgam fillings were once the norm for fixing cavities and the effects of tooth decay, dental offices like ours now offer a better solution. White fillings are comprised of specialized dental resin rather than metal.  As a result they look more natural on the surface of the tooth, they don’t expand or contact with temperature changes, and they don’t cause tooth sensitivity that can occur after filling a tooth with metal amalgam.

White fillings are also an excellent way to update old amalgam fillings that are creating sensitivity issues or compromising the aesthetic appearance of your smile.  To learn more about the process of placing white fillings and to find out if they’re right for you, give us a call at 708-460-6666.
