Tooth Colored Fillings in TeethFillings in teeth are required when teeth get decayed due to caries. This condition is to be taken care immediately as this can progress into the pulp of the tooth which consist of nerves and blood vessels thus causing severe pain. After removing the decay the cavity is filled with either a Silver filling or tooth colored composite filling. Tooth colored Composite FillingThese are tooth colored Resin filling materials which are bonded to the tooth surface. They are available in various shades and thus are cosmetically very acceptable. They are the treatment of choice as various kinds of composites are available. Composite fillings are more than just attractive. They are environmentally non-toxic because they use no mercury. They are stronger because they bond directly to the surface of the tooth. They protect the tooth from fracturing because they don't require the severe "undercut" (removal of healthy tooth structure) of a mercury filling.
Silver Amalgam FillingThese are conventional filings wherein Silver mixed with mercury are filled in the cavities. These fillings are one of the most oldest methods of cavity restorations. The ill effects of mercury in these fillings are a matter of controversy.  |
