🦷 Restoring & Protecting Your Smile – A Mercury-Free Transformation! 💎
1️⃣Image 1: Here’s a look at our setup with a rubber dam in place—an essential step when
removing old mercury fillings. This barrier protects the patient by preventing accidental
swallowing or inhaling of mercury particles during the procedure. Safety first! ✅
2️⃣Image 2: A close-up of tooth 46 before treatment. You can see the worn-out mercury filling
and surrounding decay. Over time, these fillings can weaken the tooth structure and hide
underlying problems.
3️⃣Image 3: After removing the old filling, we discovered a crack running beneath it—a
common hidden issue! Left untreated, cracks can worsen, leading to pain or fractures. By
replacing the filling with composite resin, we’ve sealed and reinforced the tooth, protecting it
from further damage. 🛡

only is it safe and mercury-free, but it also blends seamlessly with the natural tooth.
Functional and beautiful! ✨
5️⃣Image 5: Moving on to tooth 35, here’s a side view and a close-up after careful drilling to
remove decay and the old filling. Precision is key to preserving as much healthy tooth as
possible.
6️⃣Image 6: The final result—tooth 35 restored with a durable, aesthetic composite filling. A
healthier, stronger tooth and a more natural smile. 🌟
👉 Old mercury fillings can hide cracks and weaken teeth. Modern composite fillings not
only improve aesthetics but also reinforce and protect against future issues. If you have old
fillings, it might be time to upgrade for your health and smile!
