Are you hesitant to smile because your cavities have been filled
with ugly metal fillings, called amalgams? If so, tooth-colored
fillings might be just the answer for you. These revolutionary fillings
- carefully constructed from porcelain or resin - are bonded to
the teeth for not only an aesthetic, long-lasting effect, but also
to keep the teeth strong and resistant to injury.
Fillings for Dental Cavities
At some point or other in ours lives, most of us wind up with
a cavity. In most cases, a cavity calls for your dentist to remove
the decay and to fill in the tooth area that was removed. There
have been a number of advances in the field over the past few years,
so if you're one of the lucky ones and haven't had a cavity in a
while, you should read up on what is available today so that you
understand the choices available to you.
What are composite resin fillings?
Most of us have had amalgam fillings (silver) or gold filling
restorations. Some amalgam fillings were what we have called mercury
fillings, as some amalgam fillings contained mercury. Metal fillings
were effective, but very conspicuous and tended to blacken in color
over time.
Composite resin dental fillings were created as an alternative
to traditional metal dental fillings.Tooth fillings colored to look
like a natural tooth are known as Composite Resin Dental Fillings,are
made of a plastic dental resin. Composite Resin Dental Fillings
are strong, durable, and make for a very natural looking smile.
Many dental insurance plans cover their use.
Who is a candidate for composite resin fillings?
If you have a cavity in a tooth, broken fillings, mercury
fillings, or amalgam fillings, this type of dental filling is well
worth discussing with your dentist. Mercury fillings or amalgam
fillings can easily be removed and replaced with far more attractive
colored fillings. These fillings actually strengthen your tooth
beyond the level it had with the amalgam fillings.
Composite resins may also be used to enhance the appearance of
any tooth, which is a tooth bonding procedure. The composite resin
will strengthen and enhance the natural tooth structure as it does
with use as a dental filling. You can read more about a related
procedure, tooth bonding.

How are composite resin fillings accomplished?
Your dentist will give you a local anesthetic to numb the area.
The dentist then prepares an access to the decayed area of the tooth
and removes the decayed portions. This is accomplished with traditional
drills, micro air abrasion or even with a dental laser. With a composite
filling, your dentist will preserve more of the natural tooth as
the composite resin can be bonded to the tooth in thin layers. If
your tooth's decayed area is close to a nerve, a special liner will
be used to protect the nerve.
A special dental material is then used to open up the pores of
your tooth's dentin and roughens up the surface of the exposed enamel.
This achieves better and stronger bond. The bond resin is applied
to stick the composite to your tooth. This material is made of the
same dental resin as the composite however it is much more fluid.
This layer is then hardened and cured with a very bright light.
Composite resin fillings are applied in thin layers, and slowly
built up to form the complete filling. A bright dental light will
harden each layer before the next is applied.
Once your filling is completed, your dentist will use a special
paper, articulating paper, to adjust the height of your dental filling
and that your bite remains correct. Your tooth is then polished.
If such a filling is not going to be enough to protect your damaged
tooth, or if your tooth enamel is thin and will easily fracture,
or if your tooth has had a root canal that weakened your tooth condition,
your tooth may require additional protection such as a crown. You

crowns.

Amalgam Fillings
Amalgam fillings may contain mercury, and are often referred
to as metal fillings. Their safety has been in question for a number
of years due to concerns over the absorption of elemental mercury
contributing to several diseases, including Alzheimer's, multiple
sclerosis, dementia and arthritis. The FDA investigations have not
proven that the minute amount of mercury vapors released from silver
fillings is a health hazard. Amalgam fillings are a mixture of mercury
liquid and small pieces of silver and other metals such as copper,
tin and zinc.
