When should you replace them?
When considering replacing amalgam fillings, it’s also important to consider the potential health risks associated with mercury exposure. Amalgam fillings have been used for decades, but recent studies have shown that mercury can leak from these fillings and potentially harm certain individuals. Additionally, composite fillings offer a more natural and seamless appearance that many people prefer over the metallic look of amalgam fillings. However, it’s always best to consult with a dental professional to determine the best course of action for your individual needs and concerns.

When it comes to your dental health, it’s important to take care of any issues as soon as possible.
