Dental restorations that are tooth-colored

For over 100 years, dentistry has restored teeth primarily with a material made of mercury and silver.  It has done its job well, although we have had to live with its weaknesses. Those weaknesses consist of cracking teeth due to expansion of the material, and restorations turning black as the silver in the material corrodes.

Now we have many ways to provide tooth-colored restorations at Northwestern Dental Group.  We can use adhesives to bond tooth parts that look and act like teeth. We can provide a bright, healthy and strong smile with these exciting new techniques in adhesion dentistry.

Please don't hesitate to call us at (847) 967-6744 if you believe you would benefit from these advancements.  Together we can help bring a smile back to your face.
