Dental Filling in Dubai Silicon Oasis

How We Do It

At Solis Dental Clinic we choose to use a composite substance (made of acrylic resin and glass) rather than silver amalgam as the filling material due to the former’s several advantages over the latter. And, for patients who still have silver fillings from previous years, we can safely replace them with composite resin fillings or even with porcelain inlays and onlays.

Composite Resins Vs. Silver Fillings:

• Natural & Pleasing Appearance: White color of composite resin fillings can be made to match the tooth natural color. Also, they are unlike silver fillings which are conspicuously visible and not aesthetically pleasing
• Protection: Fluoride present in the resin helps prevent tooth decay
• Safety: Are unlike silver fillings which contain mercury that can corrode, leak and stain teeth and gums
• Strength: The resin forms a strong chemical bond with the tooth that strengthens it. Also, they are unlike silver fillings whose edges can wear down, weaken or break
• Sensitivity: Composite resins are a poor conductor of heat and cold and hence the teeth are not as sensitive to such sensory inputs as teeth restored with silver fillings
