Dentists call natural looking white fillings, posterior composites. Mercury silver fillings have the disadvantage of being metallic looking and turn black as they age. If your goal is to create an incredible smile, the dentist will probably use white fillings as a cosmetic tool to help create your esthetic and beautiful smile.

          Many brands of white fillings materials are approved by the American Dental Association for use with in the back of the mouth. There is a lot of controversy in their use because dentists have been trained to use mercury/silver fillings and change from established ways is often accompanied by controversy. When possible, however, we feel it's best to use a white fillings material because mercury is a dangerous substance. Studies done in Canada showed that sheep given mercury/silver fillings get mercury in their body. The argument in the US is whether it's harmful in man.

          white fillings contain no mercury and once placed into a tooth, they are often hard to see. They're beautiful. DR.K.Ahmadipour can whiten (bleach) your teeth and then match the color of your newly whitened teeth with natural looking white fillings in the back of your mouth.

          Years ago, white fillings were not strong enough to replace much of a tooth, however, modern dental techniques have been developed to strengthen larger white fillings. Most white fillings are placed directly into a tooth and hardened right after the dentist prepares a tooth. In another white fillings technique, called indirect white fillings, the dentist make a model of your tooth, makes the white fillings on the model, and then inserts the white fillings into your tooth. The indirect technique allows the dentist to harden the white fillings more than if the white fillings had been placed directly into your tooth.

          White fillings also look great in the front of your mouth. White fillings can even be placed onto the surface of your tooth using a dental technique called bonding. Bonding allows dentists to mold beautiful smiles like artists mold clay statutes. The use of a light hardened white fillings allows dentist to mold, shape, and sculpt your tooth without worrying about time or having to rush through the white fillings procedure. After the dentist is sure the white fillings looks great, it is then hardened using a dental curing light. When the light is placed close to the white fillings material, the white fillings material begins to chemically change and harden. Dental curing lights have really improved the dentist's ability to use of white fillings materials to create beautiful smiles.

          If you are considering having white fillings done to improve your smile and your goal is to look great, you should seriously consider scheduling a Cosmetic Consultation exclusively aimed at discussing what you want in your beautiful smile. This allows you and your dentist to both have the same cosmetic goals.

	Cavity identification, cavity removal and bonded fillings in two upper molars. Image #’s 1, 3, 5 and 8 show the first molar; Image #’s 2, 4, 6, 7 and 8 show the second molar. Image #’s 1 and 3 show the initial cavity. Image #’s 3 – 7 show the steps in cavity removal. Image # 8 shows the final bonded fillings.
	Bridge repair. The patient recently lost his job in telecommunications and could not afford replacement of the bridge. 1) X-ray after root canal therapy. The root canal itself did not seem subject to external resorption. 2) Gingivectomy with electrosurgery. Note the still unusual look of the facial decay. 3) Following decay removal. Note the communication to the gutta percha. 4) The bonded restoration. Photo #2 of 3.
	Treatment of a very decayed, root canaled molar with only a large bonded restoration. 1) Neglected lower molar that had an adequate root canal yet very decayed amalgam (silver) filling. 2) View of the extent of the decay after removal of the filling. 3) Decay removed. Note the gutta percha coming out of the three orifices. 4) The bonded restoration. The point here is that a bonded restoration can be placed even when a crown is obviously indicated. The crown will be placed after the patient completes orthodontics.
	Final tooth preparation before placement of direct-bonding material in a lower molar. 1) – 2) Final tooth preparation. 3) Placement of chemically-cured flowable bonding material. Note the presence of several spheres of slightly different-colored bonding material within the flowable bonding material. These are spheres of light-cured bonding material (“bonding balls”) that are used to condense against. 4) The final bonded restoration.
	Upper reconstruction in a phobic patient. The patient was a pretty, 33 year-old female. Treatment included porcelain fused to metal crown & bridge, root canal therapy on all abutments, root tip extractions, and facial bonding on both upper lateral incisors. The upper anterior root canal and crowns were first completed to show her how pretty her teeth could look and that it could be accomplished quickly and painlessly. Extractions of the hopeless teeth were all completed at one time and initiated early to allow time for healing before bridgework. Then root canal therapy was performed on the posterior abutments before their preparation for bridgework. The patient experienced minimal post-operative pain.
	Bonding restoration technique. Changing silver fillings to tooth colored.
	Bonding Technique. After acid etching, apply All Bond 2 dentin primer to remove the smear layer. Then apply All Bond 2 dentin enamel bonding agent with dual cured catalyst. Bis-fil 2B self cured composite is next placed in the interproximal boxes and somewhat over the occlusal floor. It can be compressed into the interproximal boxes by condensing on preformed, already cured 2mm wide balls of Herculite XRV bonding material. Herculite XRV bonding material is added on top. Light curing should occur for 60 seconds on each the occlusal, buccal and lingual surfaces. A metal matrix with regular wood wedges work fine. Refine anatomy with a #8 round bur and finishing burs. Then use Fortify.
	Treatment of decalcification. This is frequently caused by oral ingestion of fruit juices and improper oral hygiene.
