Until a few years ago metal fillings for back teeth were the norm. The dental
amalgam used for these fillings is a fantastically successful, relatively cheap
material which is still unsurpased in some repects. However, it is not the
best looking material especially as it blackens over time which can lead to
the whole tooth becoming dark.

Now, new white fillings have developed to the extent that they can rival
metal fillings in most cases and we offer these new materials.

If you have some (or many) old metal fillings it is quite possible to replace
these with the new white fillings.The improvement in appearance can be
quite dramatic, especially for teeth nearer the front of the mouth.

If you want to consider replacement white fillings please talk to Michael or
Nick who will be able to tell you what is possible and offer alternatives if
necessary.

The cost of a standard white filling can be found from our prices page.
