Dental Mercury is the glue that holds your grandmother's fillings together. You may know them as 'Silver Fillings' or "Amalgams' or 'Lead Fillings'. Dental Amalgam is a group of metals stuck together with mercury. The material has a putty-like consistency when first mixed, then over a few hours sets into a concrete like state. Now, the EPA is concerned with environmental contamination of these products.

Today's Dental Care retired that product 20 years ago. We only place tooth colored resins in our patients teeth...so you can Keep Smiling with the confidence you're not contributing to ground water contamination!
