Tooth Colored (White) Fillings in Boca Raton

Have you ever notices a person's smile that appears blackened by old, metal fillings?  At the Boca Raton dentistry practice of Dr. Mitchell Pohl, old-fashioned metal fillings are a thing of the past: Dr. Pohl is a proud provider of modern composite tooth colored fillings.  Not only do tooth colored (white) fillings match the patient's tooth color for a more natural look, but some experts believe that traditional metal fillings can pose a risk to patients' health.  Learn more about the benefits of white or tooth colored fillings.

Side Effects of Metal Fillings

In addition to the esthetic benefits of white fillings, there are some risks associated with metal fillings that patients should be aware of.  Traditional silver amalgam fillings are composed of about 50 percent mercury, a metal that has been proven to leak such toxins as lead, cadmium and arsenic.  Many experts believe that small amounts of the mercury from fillings can enter a patient's bloodstream, and some state that this could lead to physical and psychological issues in patients, such as mental disorders, birth defects and neurodegenerative diseases. 

While the debate as to the dangers of metal fillings is ongoing, many patients are opting to have their metal fillings replaced with tooth colored composite fillings.

Replacement of Metal Fillings

These days, if a patient needs a cavity filled, he or she will most likely opt for modern composite fillings rather than metal fillings.  But what can a patient do if he or she already has metal fillings?  If you are tired of the look of your old metal fillings, Dr. Pohl can replace them with modern white fillings that will match your natural teeth so closely, they will be practically unnoticeable.  Replacing metal amalgam fillings with tooth colored composite fillings is a very simple procedure that can have a dramatic affect on the appearance of a patient's smile.
