Hello! Welcome to the The Addison Dentist blog. If this your first visit, we hope you find useful information about our family and cosmetic dentistry practice. If you have read some of our previous articles, we are glad you checked back with us. We post new articles regularly.
My name is Dr. Rao. I have been practicing dentistry in Addison TX since 2005. The Addison Dentist is a full-service dental office located at 4145 Belt Line Rd Ste 208 in Addison. In addition to providing comprehensive examinations and deep cleanings for family dentistry clients, we perform all types of tooth restorations.
When a tooth has decay or has been damaged, a dental restoration is needed to ‘restore’ the tooth to its previous intact condition. A dental filling is one of the most common and well-known types of restorations. A dental filling is used to repair decayed or damaged tooth surfaces. Most people have a few dental fillings in their mouth.
If you have an old silver amalgam filling, we can replace it with a nearly-invisible tooth colored filling. These fillings are made out of a strong composite resin. Many of our Addison cosmetic dentistry patients have replaced their old silver fillings with fillings matched to their teeth. You can improve your smile instantly and relatively inexpensively by getting rid of the ‘metal’.
Another reason some Addison TX area clients have had their old fillings replaced is because they are concerned about the possible heavy metal toxicity of the mercury in the silver.
If you would like to replace your amalgam fillings, call us at 469-998-2515 to schedule a consultation. We are currently accepting new patients and would be happy to show you around our Addison cosmetic dental office and introduce you to our friendly team.
Smile – it increases your face value!
