Why Silver Dental Fillings Are Not Safe

Silver fillings contain 50 percent mercury, which can corrode or leak and damage your teeth and gums. This type of fillings is more likely to weaken and break compared to tooth-colored restorations. To create these sturdier dental fillings, labs use resin with fluoride to help minimize tooth decay. Tooth-colored fillings also can match your natural teeth so you can continue to smile confidently for many years. Tooth-colored restorations can last up to 30 years with good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups.

Switching to Tooth-Colored Restoration Is Possible

Our team can replace your previous silver fillings with safer tooth-colored ones. The process is simple and usually requires only two visits.

During the first appointment, we will:

Get rid of the old fillings and any other tooth decay
Create an impression of your teeth
Place a temporary onlay to protect your tooth

We send your teeth impression to the lab so they can create an onlay that will fit your tooth tightly for long-lasting results. Once the definitive onlay is ready, we can see you again. During this second appointment, we remove the temporary onlay and use a conditioning gel to prepare your tooth. We then secure the permanent filling with bonding cement and high-intensity light.

We can replace your silver dental fillings with tooth-colored restorations for stronger results. Contact Smiley Star Dental today at (903) 913-6864 to schedule an appointment.
