Default Cerec Fillings

Hi I live in leicester,

Would like to know if there`s anyone here that does CEREC[b] FILLINGS. Need my metal fillings replaced. Also could you advise me on prices etc. and is it worth it to replace metal fillings with ceramic.

Thank You
Biljana

It is not always necessary to change amalgam fillings for porcelain ones, and I would recommend changing them for the sake of it. If you wish to replace them for cosmetic reasons then that is another matter. Metal fillings do not seal the tooth and obviously do not look pleasant. Porcelain restorations (of which there are many forms) are incredibly strong and very natural looking.

I use Cerec so that I can use the very best materials to restore teeth, this way your dentistry will last a very long time

I hope this helps

Hi

Metal fillings, although not aesthetic, are a great way of restoring teeth when used under the right circumstances. Metal fillings have stood the test of time! And research documents this.

Remember: any form of restoration, whether a metal or white filling or a crown, will require replacing.

I hope this helps

Kind Regards

Raha
