Composite materials have shown to be just as hardy, if not better, than mercury amalgam fillings.

Teeth that had to be removed need to be replaced in order to keep the way the teeth bite (known as the occlusion) stable. If the tooth is not replaced, the teeth adjacent to the space will tilt into the space, and the opposing tooth will over erupt into the space. This can cause havoc on the occlusion.

A missing tooth/teeth can be replaced with:

1. Denture/s

2. Bridge/s

3. Implant/s

Porcelain crowns can be used to correct various aesthetic problems:

1. Crowding of teeth

2. Dark teeth

3. Replacing old crowns that show dark margins
