FILLINGS
Fillings are used at Pure Dental to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay or to replace a failing restoration.
Amalgam Silver fillings are often used for back molars or teeth that aren’t visible in a smile. Dental amalgam has a 150-year proven track record as one of the safest, most durable, and least expensive materials used to fill a cavity. Ongoing scientific studies conducted over the past 100 years continue to show that amalgam is not harmful.
Porcelain fillings are more cosmetic but do not last as long as silver. They are also one of the most cosmetically appealing filling options available. The material used to make porcelain fillings matches the color and translucency of natural tooth enamel, making the filling visually indistinguishable from your tooth.
Available at our Manorville and Wading River locations.
