No Mercury! No Metals! No
Kidding!
For years, the silver-mercury amalgam was the
standard filling material used in dental practices, and many
practices still use it. While they are a reasonable restoration,
amalgams have certain shortcomings. Metal does not bond well to
teeth, so decay can and does eventually leak into the tooth. But the
biggest reason many of our patients are choosing the white bonded
fillings has to do with the way they look. Many people just don’t
want an ugly black plug in their teeth. We offer modern,
state-of-the-art restorations that are a natural-looking white,
contain no metals, and can actually strengthen your teeth. They also
bond very tightly with the healthy part of the tooth so there is
much less chance of decay in the future.
‘Smile Makeovers’ in as
Little as Two Visits!
If you have misshapen teeth, unsightly gaps, or
deep discoloration, our veneers may be the answer. Veneers are
contact-lens thin and super translucent. These porcelain coverings
fit over and are bonded to your teeth, look natural, and are made
from the most advanced dental ceramic available. Since these are so
thin, little to no tooth reduction is necessary. Often times you
won’t even need a shot!
The staff at Purcellville Dental emphasizes the aesthetic aspect in ALL of our work because we know that when your smile looks good, you feel good! We use the best combination of preventive care, tooth-colored fillings, and restorative techniques for optimum dental health. Modern smile makeovers are so easy (and affordable!) that there’s simply no reason why you can’t have the perfectly beautiful, natural-looking smile you’ve always wanted.
