White Filling

"Are white fillings good for your smile?"

Everyone wants to look and feel good about themselves. Therefore, one of the most important things to have is a good smile. Obviously, in order to have a good smile, you must have healthy white teeth.

DR, one of my patients had many, many white fillings in his mouth. Almost every tooth he had was covered with at least one white filling. Those white fillings were performed on him by his previous dentist. When DR came to our dental office, his main complaint was that his mouth was hurting everywhere. He could not eat hot or cold things, and sweet things were particularly painful to his teeth. Chewing, in general, was a chore for DR. Upon examination, we found out that nearly every white filling he had was leaking very badly. Many of his teeth had large decay right underneath his white fillings. As of today, we have already performed 5 root canal treatments, and delivered 5 crowns. These 5 teeth were the exact ones DR's previous dentist had performed on before. We still plan to perform more root canals and deliver more crowns sometime in the future. Pretty soon DR will be able to eat and drink without pain. He will have a good smile.

So, this begs the question. When is it appropriate to have white fillings? Here are some guidelines so that you can be informed and better able to discuss it with your dentist:

1. Whether awake or asleep, grinders are constantly causing damage to their teeth. I advise grinders to not get white fillings since they are likely to loosen and have the filling fall out from the pressure. I recommend instead a porcelain crown.

2. If you want an aesthetically pleasant solution, are looking for a very long-term restoration, I recommend porcelain inlays, onlays, and veneers to fill and cover large cavities.

3. Large white fillings are not nearly as strong as gold or silver fillings. Larger white fillings will last for a much shorter length of time compared to these more durable solutions, and therefore require more maintenance. Maintenance = $.

4. If a large white filling has broken while traveling, I recommend you do not replace it with another one for the sake of time. Not every dentist can perform a "good" white filling, and you may be throwing your money away. Instead, I recommend you replace the filling with a temporary restoration in the meantime, and wait until you're home. Your regular, trusted dentist will likely be more attentive to your needs. Temporary fillings can typically be found at pharmacy-type stores.

5. If you have any doubts, ask your dentist what he/she would do in your situation. As healthcare providers, good dentists are required to give honest, straightforward counsel.

6. If a tooth with a large white filling has habitually caused you pain and sensitivity from the beginning, and has not improved after 6-8 weeks, please consult your dentist. It may be signs of something more pressing than a cavity.

I'm sure Mona Lisa has a beautiful smile. She just doesn't know it yet.
