Fix cracked, worn, discolored or broken teeth with
cosmetic dentistry
For over 100 years, dentists have been using silver-mercury amalgam fillings to
restore decayed or broken teeth. The only other alternative was gold and
that was too expensive for most folks.
Now there is a new and economical way to restore teeth using
tooth-colored resin fillings. The resin is made up of glass particles in a
plastic matrix. A putty-like material bonds to the tooth
with a high-intensity light. This hardens the material and allows it to be
shaped and polished for immediate use.
Once completed, the tooth has a natural appearance and is actually stronger than
before due to the strength of the adhesive agent used to bond the resin to the
tooth. Resin restorations not only look better, but they are stronger and
last longer than the old silver-amalgam fillings. Resin restorations can
range from $150 to $350 per tooth.
