Affordable Tooth Fillings

Turn to Staffordshire Dental Group P.A. for tooth fillings. Our dentists recommend tooth-colored fillings because they bond to the tooth structure and help strengthen tooth weakened by decay. White fillings are more natural and less sensitive to temperature. Tooth-colored fillings require minimal tooth reduction, conserving as much natural tissue as possible.

Let the knowledgeable dentists at Staffordshire Dental Group P.A. take a look at your teeth and advise you if fillings or crowns are the best alternative for your unique case.

Learn More About Dental Amalgam

Dental amalgam is the most widely used and researched material for fillings. It has been used to restore the teeth of more than 100 million Americans over the past 150 years. Dental amalgam is a mix of metal (also known as an alloy) that is made by combining mercury, silver, tin, copper, and sometimes other metallic elements.

Advantages of White Fillings

  • Since they bond to the tooth, composite fillings restore most of the original strength of the tooth. Since broken teeth are very expensive to restore, composites can save a lot of expense over the long run 
  • Composite fillings restore the natural appearance of the tooth 
  • Teeth restored with white fillings are less sensitive to hot and cold than teeth restored with amalgam, if correct techniques are used 
  • Composites are mercury-free 
  • Composites require less removal of tooth structure. Especially, with new cavities, the size of the hole made for the filling can be dramatically smaller with composites

Advantages of Silver Fillings

  • Composite fillings, if they are done correctly, take about 60% longer, require special expertise and expensive materials, and are more difficult to place. They are costlier than silver
  • The proper placement of a white filling requires that the site for the filling be kept totally isolated from saliva while it is being placed. In the very back of the mouth, on some patients, it is difficult to keep the tooth isolated for the duration of the procedure. This can also be uncomfortable for some patients. A silver amalgam filling does not require this strict isolation of the tooth
