Q: Are amalgam fillings still used today? 🦷
A: Yes, amalgam fillings are still used in some cases because they are strong and durable, especially for back teeth. However, many patients today prefer tooth-colored composite fillings because they look more natural and blend beautifully with the teeth ✨
The best type of filling depends on the condition of the tooth, function, location, and each patient’s needs. A proper dental consultation can help determine the most suitable option for your smile 😊
