Metal-free Fillings
Proudly serving patients in Portland, Maine and surrounding areas
The days of noticeable metal fillings are gone. Cosmetic dentistry has advanced to the point where fillings can now be matched to the color of your teeth and thus be virtually invisible.
Fillings are used to treat cavities. If you suspect you have a cavity - i.e., you have tooth pain, especially when exposed to cold - you need to see a dentist as soon as possible. Untreated cavities lead to prolonged pain and an increased risk of further tooth decay.
If you do have a cavity, metal-free fillings, generally speaking, are for you. They're used in almost all instances where metal fillings once were. Additionally, if you currently have metal fillings, you, in most cases, can have those metal fillings replaced by metal-free fillings.
In addition to being less noticeable, and therefore more cosmetically pleasing, metal-free fillings are also less conductive of heat and cold, and therefor there is less likelihood they will cause a tooth to break.
If you have a cavity, a qualified cosmetic dentist will usually present metal-free fillings to you as an option. Dr. Robert Beebe - a graduate of the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies - is well versed in the science of metal-free fillings. If you suspect you have a cavity, or if you wish to replace an existing metal fillings, call Dr. Beebe today! A healthier, more aesthetically pleasing smile is available!
