We have dramatically increased our use of bonded tooth colored restorations such as composite inlays and onlays for two reasons; esthetics and strength. This is a great advantage because silver fillings can actually cause teeth to crack. However, tooth colored restorations actually integrate with the tooth restoring it back more closely to its original strength. We believe this helps many patients avoid the expense, time and tooth trauma of complex procedures like crowns and root canals.
