Never let a cavity keep you from smiling! At Dental Town, our team offers quality dental fillings to help our patients restore their healthy smiles.
If you or your child have a cavity, you have nothing to worry about. Your trusted Berwyn dental team offers high-quality dental fillings and other restorative services. Depending on your needs, we may recommend silver fillings or tooth-colored fillings. Call Dental Town for your family’s dentistry needs.
At our practice, Dental Town offers silver fillings. Silver fillings, also called amalgam fillings, use a combination of metals to create long-lasting and durable restorations. The filling material consists of silver, tin, copper, and elemental mercury. Due to their composition, silver fillings can withstand chewing forces and are typically used to repair the back teeth.
Silver fillings have been used in dentistry for over 150 years and are FDA approved.
Also known as white or composite fillings, tooth-colored fillings are the ideal way to repair visible teeth. This type of filling is made from a metal-free composite resin and can be shaded to match the color of your surrounding tooth structure. The composite resin chemically bonds to the surface of your teeth for a strong restoration.
Tooth-colored fillings are recommended for patients aged 6 and older and are safe for children.
The lifetime of your filling depends on the type of restoration you receive. Silver fillings can last 10-15 years. Tooth-colored fillings can last 7-10 years. If you experience an issue with your filling, call our office to schedule an appointment. All restorations will eventually need to be repaired or replaced, and our team will help keep your smile healthy.
