Amalgam Composit resin

If you have chipped off or lost a small part of your tooth, especially if it is towards the center of the tooth, then we’ll most likely use a filling to fix the cavity. This is a common dental procedure, which involves filling in the hole with a special mixture to keep the rest of the tooth healthy and strong. If the damage to your teeth is more visible, then we’ll fill in the gap with a resin designed to look like a regular tooth, using a process called bonding. This process involves designing the resin to match the tooth and hardening it using an ultraviolet light. In the end, the bonded tooth will look, feel, and function exactly like a regular tooth. It will be as though you had never lost any part of the tooth in the first place.

Metal free fillings Aesthetically superior in every way, when it comes to beauty, these composite resin materials outshine metal. They blend into your smile naturally, without any dark lines or obvious metal showing. • The conservative option: Unlike amalgam, our metal-free fillings require only the removal of compromised tooth enamel, and nothing more. The filling is bonded directly to the tooth and effectively sealed. • Long-term protection: Non-metal fillings don’t expand or contract with various temperatures, reducing the risk of a broken tooth, microfractures and worsening decay.

Dental Amalgam is a commonly used dental filling that has been used for over 150 years. It is a mixture of mercury with at least one other metal. Amalgam has many advantages over other restorative material, such as low cost, strength, durability, and bacteriostatic effects. Amalgam is used in dentistry for a number of reasons. It is relatively easy to use and manipulate during placement; it remains soft for a short time so it can be packed to fill any irregular volume, and then forms a hard compound. There are circumstances in which composite (white fillings) serves better than amalgam; when amalgam is not indicated, or when a more conservative preparation would be beneficial, composite is the recommended restorative material. These situations would include small occlusal restorations, in which amalgam would require the removal of a more sound tooth structure, as well as in “enamel sites beyond the height of contour.” The American Dental Association Council on Scientific Affairs has concluded that both amalgam and composite materials are considered safe and effective for tooth restoration.

Permanent restorations in combination with partial, removable dentures are made in cases when you still have some of your teeth left, but their number is insufficient to properly support a permanent bridge and the use of implants are also not feasible. Partial dentures can be attached to permanent crowns or to a few of the remaining teeth for stability and retention by clasps, buttons, slides, or by telescopic crowns.
