Amalgam fillings, also known as silver fillings, are made of a mixture of metals including silver, tin, copper, and mercury. They are durable and have been used for many years, but they are not tooth-colored so they are mainly used on back teeth where aesthetics is not as important.

Ceramic fillings, also known as inlays or onlays, are custom-made in a laboratory and are usually made of porcelain. They are matched to the color of your teeth and provide a very natural-looking result. They are mainly used to repair larger cavities or when more tooth structure needs to be restored.

During your appointment, our dentist will evaluate the extent of the decay and recommend the best filling material for your specific case. We will numb the area around the tooth to ensure your comfort during the procedure. The damaged portion of the tooth will then be removed, and the filling material will be placed and shaped to restore the tooth to its natural shape and function.

Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene practices can help to prevent cavities and the need for fillings. Please contact us to schedule your appointment today. We provide the best dental filling in Brookfield.
