Most people these days have fillings of one sort or another.  Fillings don't have to be obvious - in fact they can be very natural looking.  Many people don't want amalgam fillings because they show when they laugh or smile, or because they contain mercury.

The different types of fillings:

• Amalgam (silver coloured)
• Composite/White (tooth coloured)
• Gold inlays and onlays (gold coloured)
• Porcelain inlays (tooth coloured)

We try not to use amalgam fillings.  Composite/white fillings were traditionally considered to be less long-lasting than silver fillings.  The materials we use for fillings are all strong and prove very successful.

We can even replace your old amalgam fillings with composite/white fillings if you wish.
