Tooth-Colored Fillings in Trinity, FL

Composite fillings match the shade of your tooth and bond directly to the remaining structure, which means less healthy tooth has to be removed than with the silver amalgam most Trinity adults grew up with.

Mercury-Free Fillings for Trinity Patients

This is the most common question we field from longtime Trinity patients, and the answer disappoints people who want a simple yes. Both the FDA and the ADA consider existing amalgam fillings safe, and removing a sound one releases more mercury vapor than leaving it alone. We replace amalgam when there is an actual reason — the filling is cracked, decay has appeared underneath, the tooth is fracturing around it, or the patient strongly prefers the cosmetic change and understands the tradeoff. We do not recommend wholesale replacement of intact fillings, and we will tell you which of yours genuinely need attention.
