Cosmetic Dentistry Fixes Cracked, Worn, Discolored Or Broken Teeth
At Shady Spring Dental Care
For over 100 years,
dentists have been using silver
amalgam fillings to restore decayed or broken teeth.
Now there is a new way to restore teeth in the Shady Spring area using tooth-colored resin fillings. The resin is made up of glass particles in a plastic matrix.
Dr. Clay or Dr. Hiener bonds the putty-like material to the tooth with a high-intensity light. This hardens the material and allows it to be shaped and polished for immediate use.
Once completed, the tooth has a natural appearance and is actually
stronger than before due to the strength of the adhesive agent used to
bond the resin to the tooth. Resin restorations not only look
better, but they are stronger and last longer than the old
silver-amalgam fillings.
Please call our office at Shady Spring Dental Care with any questions you may have about the benefits of
resin restorations.
