White Dental Fillings

No Mercury! No Metals!

White Dental Fillings Hendersonville NCMany people are familiar with the silver-mercury amalgam filling, which was the standard filling material for restorations for many years. It worked reasonably well with some shortcomings. The metal did not form a tight bond with the tooth, allowing decay to eventually form under the filling. Many people did not like the appearance of a dark plug in their teeth that was noticeable when smiling, laughing, or speaking. We offer our patients composite resin fillings that bind very well to the remaining tooth structure and can match the shade of the tooth. This reduces any chance of decay and gives a patient a pleasing smile.

Wine Tasters, Beware

Wine tasters may be at high risk for enamel stain and erosion.

Why? Sipping wine many times a day -- and swishing it in the mouth -- increases the enamel's exposure to damaging acids.

That is why it's better to drink a glass of wine, soda, or sweet tea with a meal instead of sipping it over several hours.

Dental Crowns Dentist

Will You Need a Crown?
Sometimes a tooth might be broken or cracked or worn down beyond repair for a filling. It would then need to be restored with a crown. Our crowns are constructed of the highest quality materials that make them durable and functional – they even strengthen the tooth structure. They look just like a real tooth and no one will ever know the difference.

Your Mouth Is Not a Bottle Opener!

Your mother was right: Never open bottles, packages, or other containers with your teeth. You might permanently chip or crack the enamel.

Gnawing on anything else -- like pens or fingernails -- or chomping down on seeds, popcorn kernels, or ice could have the same result.
