"The most commonly asked questions we hear from our patients."
I have a number of black fillings. What can I have done to improve these?
The black filling material used in your teeth is amalgam. It has been used as a filling material for over a hundred years; it's still one of the strongest materials available.
However, it's about as unattractive a filling material as you can get. There are a number of other tooth-colour restorative materials currently available that can be used to replace old amalgams.
