White (Mercury Free) Fillings

At the Dental Suite we look first at the safety and well-being of our patients; this is supported by our practice of amalgam free fillings.

Traditionally dentists used amalgam to fill cavities, this was a combination of metals including about 50% mercury, although it is durable and effective, it is believed to cause a number of serious health problems.

Today, there are various effective and cosmetically superior alternatives to  silver coloured mercury amalgam. At the Dental Suite our main priority is your comfort and long-term health, therefore we endorse the use of white, amalgam free fillings at our practice. Read more about white fillings here.
