No More Metal Fillings
Dr. Anisimova focuses not only on the health of your teeth but the health of your whole body as it relates to your dental care.
Why are metal fillings dangerous?
Metal dental fillings can contain from 48-55 percent mercury, which is a toxic substance. Scientific studies have demonstrated that mercury, even in small amounts, can cause damage to organs, glands, blood cells, enzymes and hormones, and have been shown to suppress the body's immune system.
Even if one's metal fillings contain some small trace of mercury, the World Health Organization states that no level of mercury is safe. Many dentists still use these metal fillings with traces of mercury because the material is cheaper than other options available. Dr. Anisimova uses safer materials that look and feel better in your mouth.
What are the advantages of white fillings?
As well as being better for you, white fillings look much more natural. They blend nicely with the tooth so you can barely tell you even had a cavity.
These white fillings cause no further harm to your tooth, nor to your personal health.
These fillings look very natural and typically require that far less of the tooth be removed than metal fillings.
