Guest guest Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 they even used this white material to build up my daughter's peg lateral tooth a couple of years ago - and it's doing great! I'd be questioning the dentist maybe. Cris Amalgam Removal and White Fillings Hi Jamy and EveryOne, I have been doing quite a bit of research on-line about removing amalgams and replacing them with composite fillings etc. Evidently it takes more skill to put the composite fillings in well. I have several in my lower molars and they seem to be holding just fine. Check it out on line you will find lots of information about the various substances used for fillings etc. Unless the holes left when your fillings were removed were very large you shouldn't be having problems with your fillings.
