Amalgam "metal fillings"

The picture here shows a patient with an existing metal filling that has caused the entire lingual (tongue side) of the tooth to break away. The patient actually didn't even know it!

I just wanted to share this picture to show the devastating effects metal amalgam fillings can have on teeth. Of course, we can fix this and I will post a picture of our beautiful repair. Thorne Family Dentistry.
