Fix cracked, worn, discolored or broken teeth
with cosmetic dentistry
For over 100 years, dentists have been using silver-mercury amalgam
fillings to restore decayed or broken teeth. The only other alternative
was gold and that was too expensive for most folks.
Now there is a new and economical way to restore teeth in the
Fairfield area using tooth-colored resin fillings. The resin is made up
of glass particles in a plastic matrix. Dr. Epstein bonds the putty-like
material to the tooth with a high-intensity light. This hardens the
material and allows it to be shaped and polished for immediate use.
Once completed, the tooth has a natural appearance and is actually
stronger than before due to the strength of the adhesive agent used to
bond the resin to the tooth. Resin restorations not only look better,
but they are stronger and last longer than the old silver-amalgam
fillings.
Please call our office at Family Dental Group
at (203) DEN-TIST (336-8478) with
any questions you may have about the benefits of resin restorations.
