Amalgam (silver) fillings have been the norm in dentistry since the 1800s. But now, modern dentistry has introduced composite resin fillings that blend in with your natural teeth. They\u2019ve surged into popularity because they offer a number of benefits that older solutions can\u2019t. Read on to find out the pros and cons of each filling option and how they\u2019ve advanced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Amalgam Fillings?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amalgams are still occasionally used today, but most\ndentists have switched over to more modern treatments like composite resin.\nAmalgam typically consists of a mixture of metals including mercury, silver,\ntin, and copper. Mercury comprises about half of the mixture and binds the\nother metal together to make the filling strong. Because it is combined with\nother metals, it is able to form a safe and stable compound. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some advantages that amalgam fillings were able to offer\ninclude: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Because they\u2019ve been around for so long, they have<br>been proven to be effective and safe. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They\u2019re generally more cost effective than their<br>composite counterparts. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They typically last for about 10-15 years, so<br>you wouldn\u2019t have to worry about having them replaced frequently.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amalgams have also been proven to have quite a few\ndrawbacks, which explains why most dentists only offer composite resin fillings\nnowadays. These drawbacks include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Because they aren\u2019t tooth-colored, they are<br>noticeable when you open your mouth laughing or smiling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some people have allergic reactions or are<br>sensitive to the combination of metals that comprise the filling. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Amalgam fillings can cause the surrounding tooth<br>to turn a grayish color.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Although your teeth naturally expand and<br>contract when they come into contact with hot and cold substances, amalgams do<br>this to a greater degree and can cause more cracks and fractures.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Composite Fillings?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cocoabeachdentist.com\/tooth-colored-fillings.html\">Composite\nfillings<\/a> have only been around since the 60s, and they didn\u2019t become widely\npopular until the 1980s. Composite resin fillings are comprised of a mixture of\nceramic and plastic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some benefits that composite fillings offer are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Because they are the same color as your natural<br>teeth, they blend in well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They easily bond to the surface of your tooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Since they are made of a flexible material,<br>there is less drilling required, and they preserve the maximum amount of your<br>tooth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Composite resin fillings only have a few downsides, which\nexplains why most dentists prefer this more modern dental advancement. Because\nof the compound used, these fillings can typically take longer to place because\nof the process is more involved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Filling Option is Best For You?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To choose which option is best for you, speak with your\ndentist, taking into account the size and location of your cavity. Also,\ndiscuss any cosmetic and medical concerns you may have. Your dentist in Cocoa\nBeach can offer you additional information on the difference between the two\nand why most dentists prefer the use of composite resin nowadays. Modern dental\ntechniques have changed so they can offer you a functioning treatment that also\nlooks natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Jeff Lineberry has proudly served the needs of dental patients in Cocoa Beach for several years.
