Fillings (White/Silver)

White fillings are made of glass particles in an acrylic matrix and are extremely life like. They have improved significantly over the years and are today as hard to wear and tear as the older metal fillings.
Metal fillings are very safe and have been used for a hundred years. They have a higher content of silver, stanium and copper today, and less mercury.
If you have old metal fillings (amalgams) that do not give any trouble, our advice is to leave them alone. Metal fillings are still the best option in some cases, and in temporary teeth.
