Although no definitive evidence has been found that silver mercury fillings are harmful to human health, we prefer to err on the conservative side. That’s why we use completely safe and beautiful composite resin tooth fillings. These tooth-colored fillings are made up of tiny particles of glass and plastic, not metal.

That’s why we recommend you visit us for an initial consultation and exam so that we can give you an accurate estimate for your treatment.
