Mercury Free Dentistry
We want our patients to feel safe and comfortable with the materials that are being used in their mouths, which is why we do not use mercury fillings. We are a mercury-free dental practice.
Metal fillings can potentially be dangerous as they age. Instead, we use materials that are biomimetic, mimicking natural materials from the body. You will not have to worry about them causing health issues as the restoration ages.
What Are Non-Toxic and Biocompatible Dental Materials?
Non-toxic dental materials are non-reactive, tested, and proven to be safe for dentistry. They are designed to work with the body’s natural systems and are:
- Hypoallergenic
- Resistant to degradation
- Free from carcinogens
- Safe for the circulatory system
When we speak of bio-ceramic and biocompatible materials, we are referring to materials that the body accepts and can even bond with. If the body accepts materials and doesn’t reject it as a foreign material, it is biocompatible.
Here at Bridge Creek Dental, our dentists use non-toxic and biocompatible materials. In lieu of metals and plastics for fillings and crowns, porcelain and composite are used for dental treatments.
Benefits of Bio Ceramic Materials
There are many benefits to using bioceramic materials. Here are a couple of reasons we use them at Bridge Creek Dental:
- Non-toxic and mercury-free
- Doesn’t degrade or shrink over time
- Reduces inflammation and swelling in restorations
- Cosmetically appealing and discrete
- Poses less health and allergen risks
Our patients can trust that their treatments are healthy and safe when they visit our dental office.
