In the past, tooth problems like cavities or other trauma only had one viable treatment option: metal or amalgam fillings. Thankfully, advances in the science of dentistry have led to the development of resin compounds that, when bonded to your tooth, provide a durable filling with a much more natural appearance.

If you're looking for a convenient way to straighten your teeth without advertising the fact that you're receiving orthodontic treatment, consider Invisalign. Invisalign invisible braces are the most innovative method available to get a beautiful, straight smile without traditional metal-filled braces.

Patients who prefer amalgam-free dental fillings will be delighted to know that Dr. Scott C. Suntrup can work with a variety of restorative materials, including those that are free of mercury or amalgam.

Whether you need something as simple as a filling replaced, want to explore the aesthetic difference that a crown could make on a discolored or damaged tooth, or need more complex procedures like replacement tooth implants or root canal therapy, Dr. Scott C. Suntrup can work with you to devise a treatment plan aimed at repairing or replacing your natural teeth without the use of amalgams, giving you the healthy and beautiful smile you deserve.
