Tooth-Colored FillingsAs you can see, tooth-colored fillings by Dr. Doray
can substantially improve the beauty of your teeth.
If you have
silver fillings in your teeth, you may have noticed their unsightly
appearance in your photographs. While these fillings (a mixture of silver
and mercury) have been used in dentistry for over 100 years, they are
certainly not up to the esthetic standard of modern cosmetic dentistry.
Silver fillings turn black as the material corrodes in the mouth, often
staining the adjacent tooth structure and gum tissues. Large silver
fillings may also cause cracking in the surrounding tooth structure. You
may have experienced the fracture of one or more teeth with large silver
fillings. Don’t wait for it to happen again.
For smaller fillings, Dr. Doray uses tooth-colored reinforced plastic
materials that restore the natural beauty and strength to your teeth.
These materials are placed into the teeth using the latest advanced
bonding materials for excellent adhesion and virtually no sensitivity.
For larger fillings, Dr. Doray fabricates exquisite porcelain
restorations (onlays) that look and feel just like your natural tooth
structure. These porcelain fillings strengthen teeth that may have been
weakened by prior large fillings, preserving natural tooth structure and
preventing further cracking of the teeth without having to make crowns.
Our porcelain restorations look natural, feel great, and last a long time.
Dr. Doray can create a bright, healthy and strong smile with the many
exciting new materials and techniques in adhesion dentistry. Cosmetic
dentistry for your smile isn’t just limited to the front teeth. Why not
invest in having your whole mouth look great!
