Replacing silver fillings

Silver, or amalgam, fillings are made with mercury, silver, tin and copper. In some cases, other metals may be included in amalgam fillings, too. A great deal of research has examined these fillings and found them to be an effective, long-lasting treatment for dental decay.

We often have patients ask us about options for replacing their old silver fillings for a more discreet option. Whilst this is possible and will renew your smile to better blend and dental work with your natural teeth, its not essential unless there is a concern about the structure of the original tooth.

Old silver fillings can deteriorate over time, leaving your teeth vulnerable to decay or tooth cracks. Should this occur, your dentist will usually recommend replacing old silver fillings with a durable, more aesthetic composite filling, which we will match in colour to your natural teeth.

Restoring your teeth and regaining your smile

At Rowcroft Dental Centre, we use resin composite fillings to match the colour of your teeth and ensure a long-lasting and natural-looking result. We also offer porcelain crowns, inlays and onlays as successful options for repairing cracked, broken, decayed or heavily filled teeth. They are hardwearing and can be colour-matched perfectly to your own teeth.

If you would like to discuss replacing your old amalgam fillings or for any dental needs, give us a call on 01453 750778 or 01453 764762.

I have been a patient at Rowcroft Dental Surgery and have been looked after by Dr. House and Dr. Lucy Li. From my very first appointment, both dentists demonstrated exceptional patience, care, and professionalism that truly put me at ease. I was referred for an implant consultation regarding a complicated back molar, and I was genuinely impressed by how thoroughly they approached my case. Rather than rushing to a decision, they took the time to conduct a comprehensive examination, including detailed X-rays, to fully understand the complexity of my situation before discussing any treatment options. It was clear that they carefully considered every aspect of my case before recommending. The entire team at Rowcroft Dental Surgery creates a wonderfully warm and welcoming atmosphere. Every member of staff is friendly.

Courteous service as ever.

3rd April 2026

The dentist and nurse were friendly, patient and explained things clearly. They listened to me and gave me confidence. However I was not happy with the booking experience. The receptionist seemed more concerned about how I would pay than my dental pain. She did not tell the dentist that I was experiencing pain when I phoned.

Always, professional, friendly and thorough service from receptionists through to hygienist, dentist and assistants

31st March 2026

I have visited the surgery many times for dental care over many years and have always found the level of treatment and care excellent. On my last visit I received Hygienist care from Lisa whom I have visited many times who has helped build my confidence in having dental treatment. Lisa has always shown me care, understanding and respect for my fear and phobia of needles.

30th March 2026

I am a very nervous patient and I know my dentist Lucy and my hygienist Lisa are aware and take all this into consideration during my appointment.

29th March 2026

As usual - excellent. Lisa really puts you at ease. Lucy is always so informative and explains what she is about to do. Both always take care to make me feel comfortable as I am so afraid of going to the dentist !!!!

27th March 2026

They always explain what options you have, really care to get a positive outcome. I feel they don’t do work which is not needed and really care about their patients.
