Gold Fillings
Gold
fillings are widely viewed as being the
crème de la crème of restorations. From
a bio-mechanical perspective, they are the
ideal material as they will not tarnish
or corrode and they wear at the same rate
as tooth enamel. The placement of a gold
filling requires two separate visits with
us. At the first visit, the cavity is removed
and the tooth is prepared. An impression
is taken of the tooth preparation and a
temporary restoration is placed.
A custom made filling is made from the impression.
At the second visit the temporary restoration
is removed and the gold filling is placed. |
