Tooth-Colored Fillings in Yorktown Heights, NY

An Aesthetic Choice for a Brighter, More Youthful Look

When tooth decay damages a tooth, it breaks down the hard tissue of the tooth leaving soft, discolored decay. When this is cleaned out we are left with a sterile cavity that has to be repaired. If it is a small to moderate-sized area, the cavity can be filled directly with tooth-colored composite materials that can be packed and hardened in the tooth. If the cavity is large, stronger, and more durable materials need to be used.

Are All White Fillings Created Equal?

Until recently, most of the white plastic fillings in use in dentistry contained a compound known as Bisphenol A or BPA. This compound is found in many products made of plastic and mimics estrogen, which can cause health issues.
The first evidence of the estrogenicity of Bisphenol A came from experiments conducted in the 1930s on rats, but the negative effects were not reported until 1997. Since then, BPA’s endocrine-disrupting properties have been studied in depth. Studies with rats have confirmed that composite fillings containing BPA are estrogenic.

The Perfect Match

At the Center for Holistic Dentistry, we use a composite filling material called Voco Admira Fusion which consistently ranks as one of the most biocompatible filling materials amongst holistic dentists. It is a material that never contained Bisphenol A. It is highly esthetic and looks just like the enamel in your teeth. It is a great material to repair small areas in your teeth.

Our cosmetic fillings are highly durable and resistant to stress when placed in your mouth. Tooth-colored fillings blend with surrounding teeth and enhance a bright, youthful appearance. No one will even notice they’re there – including you!

"I can’t thank Dr. Lerner and his staff enough, notably his assistant Nicole for expertly handling my mercury filling removals.I had it done in 2 phases and they took very good care of me on both occasions. The whole office is very pleasant, so professional and I look forward to my visits. On this most recent cleaning appointment, Linda did my cleaning. She was gentle and thorough. Highly recommend."

"Excellent experience during my initial consultation. The most complete examination I have ever had by a dentist, including full body muscle testing. This testing uncovered major alignment issues with my jaw which has been causing a lifetime of misalignment throughout the rest of my body. Dr. Lerner and his staff are outside the box thinkers and I am very happy I have found them."
