Silver Fillings vs. Tooth-Colored Fillings: Key Differences to Consider

Tooth-colored fillings are a healthier choice since they are made from resin or plastic materials, unlike silver fillings, which are composed of a metal alloy containing mercury. Mercury has raised health concerns due to the potential risks of overexposure, and pregnant women, for instance, are advised to limit their intake of mercury-rich foods like tuna. While some consider amalgam fillings to be safe, the research on their risks is still debated. To reduce the potential risks associated with mercury, opting for tooth-colored fillings or replacing old silver ones can be a safer alternative.
