BPA Free Fillings

What is a BPA Free Filling

With our patients' health our primary concern, we take the time to educate everyone as to our procedures and protocols. Most dental practices have moved away from silver mercury fillings for obvious toxicity concerns and gone to what are called white composite fillings. But not all white fillings are the same.

​

There is an emerging concern over some of the chemicals used in the most common white composite fillings placed in most dental practices. Fillings made with what is called BisGMA may contain Bisphenol A. There is growing speculation over potential estrogen-mimicking effects of plastic chemicals like Bisphenol A. The materials that we use do not contain Bisphenol A or B and because this material uses less resin, it is tests very high for biocompatibility. 

​

We are happy to discuss with you this and the many small details that define what we call "Health Centered Dentistry."  We offer free consultations and look forward to working on a personalized program for you to achieve our common goals.

If you’re looking for a holistic dentist, Midway Family Dental and Rachel Riley DMD  can help. We understand your concerns about the dental materials used to restore your teeth. And the proper disinfection protocols needed for safe dentistry including ozone therapy. Our goal is to help you achieve and sustain good oral health that supports your overall health.

Holistic Dentistry Practices

We use biocompatible materials as a healthy and aesthetic solution to restore teeth. We ensure restorations are correctly placed, bonded, and sealed to prevent leakage and decay. If you have allergies, metal sensitivities, or an autoimmune disorder, you can be confident that we use materials to support your overall health.

MERCURY-FREE FILLINGS

Amalgam fillings contain copper, mercury, silver, tin, and zinc. Although they are often referred to as silver fillings, they contain more mercury than silver—about 50%. Some studies show that chewing causes mercury vapor to be released from amalgam fillings. And that raises health concerns for many people.

Midway Family Dental and Rachel Riley DMD protects teeth from decay with porcelain materials or white composite fillings. Composite fillings have several advantages over amalgam fillings:

We use exclusively BPA Free composite fillings.

They are mercury free.

  • While preparing a tooth for a filling, less removal of your healthy tooth structure is required.

  • They bond to your teeth and strengthen them.

SANITARY AMALGAM REMOVAL

If you have old amalgam fillings that need to be replaced, we use the SMART amalgam filling protocol. Visit our wep page for videos on SMART amalgam filling removal. removal.

  • Isolate the affected tooth

  • Divide the filling into chunks

  • Vacuum out the chunks and particles at high speed

  • Rinse and clean your mouth with a liquid that binds to mercury

Metal-Free Crowns and Bridges

EMAX

eMax crowns are made of lithium disilicate—a highly esthetic, high-strength material. Its characteristics include:

  • Extremely strong glass-ceramic

  • Can be manipulated to produce highly esthetic results

  • Provides excellent color, luster, and translucence

ZIRCONIA

Zirconia (zirconium dioxide) is sometimes referred to as ceramic steel because it’s exceptionally strong. Some characteristics of zirconia restorations include:

  • Virtually no risk of allergic reaction

  • Won’t show a dark line at your gumline, as porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns will

  • Color and translucency similar to natural teeth

  • Strong enough to be used in a dental bridge for posterior teeth, instead of a commonly used metal foundation
