Have you had cavities filled in the past with the metal amalgam fillings traditionally used by dentists? Are you embarrassed to show your smile because of your mouth full of metal?
Well, metal-free teeth fillings, also known as composite filling and white filling, are a great alternative to these traditional metal amalgam fillings used my many old-school dentists.
These new, natural looking white fillings offer many advantages, including:
