Replace Silver Fillings With White Tooth Fillings At Thomas R Gibbs DDS FAGD FDOCS
 

Many people in the Glen Ellyn area have had silver fillings placed into their teeth because they had "cavities". These silver fillings are called amalgams.  Amalgam fills the space where the decay in the tooth has been removed.

However, over time, the amalgam corrodes and leaks which blackens the silver, and many times the tooth. This is easily seen as soon as a patient opens his or her mouth and is usually a source of embarrassment for the patient.

At Thomas R Gibbs DDS FAGD FDOCS we can provide  you with composite fillings that are made of a porcelain-like material that actually bonds to the tooth for a tight seal. They are strong and stain-resistant, and they are color-matched to the natural tooth, making them "invisible".

Composite fillings also lack the sensitivity that is often associated with silver amalgam fillings. They are especially suited for smaller cavities and for patients who may be allergic to metal fillings.

Please don't hesitate to call Thomas R Gibbs DDS FAGD FDOCS at (630) 858-8800 with any questions you may have about the benefits of replacing silver amalgam fillings with invisible composite fillings.
