Preserve a healthy, white smile, and maximum tooth
structure with bonded, color matched porcelain onlays and composite
restorations. Using high tech, adhesive techniques, these biocompatible
restorations will be virtually indistinguishable from your natural
smile. You will avoid the necessity of removing the larger amounts
of tooth structure required to place old fashioned Mercury based
metal fillings. These outmoded "silver" fillings are
harder than tooth structure, acting as wedges and causing cracks
to form as chewing forces drive the metals into the remaining
tooth structure. This can lead to the need for crowns, when, over
time, teeth fracture and decay develops under leaky, old metal
fillings.
