![]() What Goes Into These Fillings?Known as a white filling, instead of the silver that some are used to, this is a filling that can be used anywhere in the mouth. Usually, metal fillings are placed in deeper cavities or towards the back of the mouth because they last and hold for a longer amount of time.White fillings are used in the front of the mouth because they mesh well with the color and look of the teeth. This allows the person to smile with more confidence and we love being able to make that happen with the right colored filling. Composite fillings are made from a type of resin-based oligomer. Silicon dioxide, A-glycidyl methacrylate, semi-crystalline polyceram and urethane dimethacrylate. All of these ingredients come together to create a binding agent that is able to provide a hold on the tooth in the mouth regardless of chewing, talking, saliva, eating or drinking and anything else you do with your mouth. This mixture looks and acts just like the natural tooth. Call Us for More Information About FillingsIf you are in need of a filling, or even a cleaning, give our office a call today.
