Composite Restorations

Restorations (white fillings) are now made to match the natural bite and feel of the original tooth. In the past however, teeth were filled with black /silver mercury fillings. With today's technologies, we can replace old worn mercury fillings with natural-looking, tooth-colored composite (resin) restorations. Composite restorations are non-toxic, tooth reinforcing and cosmetically pleasing.

By the way, mercury fillings are a 100-year-old technology. It is a well-documented fact that mercury is a toxic substance. It can be more toxic to humans than arsenic, cadmium, or lead. Some research indicates that each time you bite down on a mercury filling, you may be releasing a small amount of mercury vapor into your mouth, and thus into your system. This "mercury mist" builds up over time very slowly and may cause you body to have a toxic reaction.

Let Dr. Weigand replace your old fillings with safe, natural-looking composite restorations.
