Understand the Need for Filling Replacement

Over time, amalgam and metal fillings can deteriorate, leading to potential discomfort, tooth decay, and unsightly silver patches in your smile.

Whether you’re concerned about the appearance of your fillings or the safety of the materials, Leslie Family Dental is here to guide you through the process of safe, efficient, and pain-free filling replacement.
