Metal-Free Fillings

There are several benefits when it comes to restorations using metal-free fillings. Muncie dentist, Dr. Pyle at University Avenue Dental finds that metal-free fillings are simply the best alternative for filling cavities.

One reason Dr. Pyle chooses metal-free fillings is because they offer the most natural appearance. The composite resin material that make up metal-free fillings can be matched to the exact likeness of your existing teeth for a restoration that won’t be noticed by others.

Metal-free fillings won’t compromise the integrity of your teeth. Placing metal fillings requires more removal of the natural tooth structure than metal-free fillings do. Also, metal fillings are known to expand and contract with heat changes, which may lead to cracks in the teeth or create a looseness in the filling that becomes a home for bacteria. With expert bonding techniques, metal-free fillings by our Muncie dentist are a more conservative restoration that will provide the longest-lasting results.

At University Avenue Dental, Dr. Pyle believes that his patients deserve the very best in general and cosmetic dental care. Schedule your consultation today.
