Replace Unsightly
Silver-Mercury Fillings At Michael O Givens DDS PLLC
Tooth-colored "resin" fillings
by Dr. Givens
For over 100 years, dentists have been using
silver-mercury amalgam fillings to restore decayed or broken teeth. The only other alternative was gold and that was too expensive for most folks.
Now at Michael O Givens DDS PLLC there is a new and economical way to restore teeth using tooth-colored resin fillings. The resin is made up of glass particles in a plastic matrix.
Dr. Givens bonds the putty-like material to the tooth with a high-intensity light. This hardens the material and allows it to be shaped and polished for immediate use.
Once completed by Dr. Givens, your tooth has a natural appearance and
is actually stronger than before due to the strength of the adhesive
agent used to bond the resin to the tooth.
Please call us at Michael O Givens DDS PLLC with any questions you may have about the benefits of
resin restorations.
