Replace Fillings and Prevent Implants With Onlays
Root canals and fillings are often the most feared procedures in the entire realm of dentistry. For the past many many years, dentists doubled as metal smelters, as damaged teeth and drilled teeth had to be filled with silver amalgam. While new composite restorations, or white fillings, have replaced silver in recent years, silver amalgam effectively “filled the gap” for most of history’s dental cases. Today, our doctors possess ultra modern technology for patients looking for a new, 21st century solution. There is one big problem with amalgam fillings: the filling can put a tremendous amount of pressure on your tooth, thus resulting in fractures radiating out from the filling, which can ultimately lead to a broken tooth. Further cracks in your tooth may necessitate a root canal, and more damage will make a dental implant imperative later on if the tooth were to crack deep below the gumline.
