Tooth-colored fillings not only look natural, but they don’t contain mercury, a heavy metal found in trace amounts in dental amalgam. While the amount of mercury in amalgams is not deemed hazardous by the American Dental Association, Dr. Lakebrink prefers to place only white, mercury-free fillings for your optimal health and beautiful smile.
