Metal-Free Restorations

Metal-Free Restorations

For many years dentists only had mercury amalgam, cast metal alloys and gold as options for restoring teeth. These were the only strong, long-lasting materials available then. Today there is an increasing demand for tooth-coloured restorations, especially as metal allergies become more apparent.

The most bio-compatible and suitable material needs to be chosen individually for each patient. These depend on identifying the reasons why teeth break down in the first place. A person with a chronic dry mouth condition will have brittle teeth and a higher risk of tooth decay due to the lack of moisture in their mouth.

Dr Malik provides high-quality, durable white fillings that look invisible. The filling will be unnoticed, being virtually invisible and your teeth will look  bright and natural. It’s also a much healthier alternative as there is no exposure to metals.
