The material in metal-free fillings is made from glass and plastic so there are no harmful metal additives like mercury.

For a long time, you could only choose a metal filling, a metal crown, or other metal dental prostheses. Problems with metal-based treatments included potential damage to the tooth and discoloration. The metal can expand and change shape due to things such as temperature. These shifts inside your mouth can damage your tooth because bacteria move into new spaces and allows decay to take root.
