If you have old mercury tooth fillings, it might be a good idea to think about replacing them. Mercury fillings can be unattractive and problematic, causing your tooth or teeth to appear and feel unnatural. Moreover, mercury has a tendency to expand and contract with temperature changes, which can weaken tooth structure over time. Our practice is mercury-free, and we are here to help repair and replace your deteriorating tooth fillings.

If you have a cavity or decayed tooth, Dr. Segal may suggest getting a tooth filling to maintain the health of your natural teeth and prevent the need for more extensive dental work in the future. Fillings help protect against bacteria that can harm the pulp or nerves of your tooth.

If you require a filling, there's no need to be concerned. The procedure is straightforward and painless. Dr. Segal will numb the tooth with anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Using advanced tools, he will remove any decay and fill the cavity with a tooth-colored composite filling that is strong and durable.
