Amalgams. They last for decades (which is great), but sometimes, having metal wedged into the tooth, can cause the tooth to wedge apart after years of clenching, chewing and grinding. Fortunately the good dentists at Northbridge Dentists can restore old amalgams and make them look like a tooth again! It depends on how much tooth structure is left to work with, but generally Composite Resin (white fillings) have similar strength properties, while being bonded (not “wedged in”) to the tooth. The best part? They look great!
Ask your dentist about them
Can you believe these are the SAME TOOTH?! Wonderful results
