For a filling experience in dental filling, come to JM Dental Care. It is a dental restorative procedure used to restore the function, integrity and morphology of missing tooth structure.
The structural loss typically results from caries or external trauma. It is also lost intentionally during tooth preparation to improve the aesthetics or the physical integrity of the intended restorative material. Dental restoration also refers to the replacement of missing tooth structure that is supported by dental implants.
TOOTH COLORED- Dental composites restorative materials are also called white fillings, used in direct fillings. These materials are similar to those used in direct fillings for both anterior and posterior teeth as they are tooth-colored and esthetic.
SILVER COLORED ? AMALGAM?? Silver amalgam (Consists of mercury (50%), silver (~22-32% ), tin (~14%), copper (~8%), and other trace metals)
Dental Amalgam is widely used because of the ease of fabricating the plastic material into rigid direct fillings, completed in single appointment, with acceptable strength, hardness, corrosion, and toxicity properties. It is more forgiving of preparation and technique than composite resins used for that purpose. It is now mainly used for posterior teeth.
