What type of treatment would be considered cosmetic dental treatment?

There are many types of cosmetic dental treatment including the following. Traditional amalgam fillings do not look pretty and these can be replaced with white fillings that better match tooth colour. Missing teeth can be replaced by implants. Crooked teeth can be realigned to look tidier. And perhaps easiest of all, teeth can be whitened.


Is there natraul ways to fix cavities I had gone so many years wo a cavity Then I switched dentists hmm and got four of them I can't stand the fillings do some dentists repair not fill them?

you repair a cavity by doing a filling Answer It is important to keep your teeth in good repair. Get the fillings. A natural way is prevention: brush your teeth with a quality toothpaste twice a day; stop drinking sodas, eat an apple daily. Periodically, you may go years without a filling and then have a year where there are several. It may or may not be the dentist.


Is it true that metal fillings on the teeth are not good?

Metal fillings can lead to cracked teeth over time because they expand. They contain small amounts of mercury, which is quite toxic. Indeed, many dentists now won't use amalgam because of the mercury component. On the other hand, white fillings are usually made of plastic and glass particles - they are mercury free and because they bond to the tooth they actually restore much of its original strength.

A tooth can have a cavity or many cavities. Teeth will have cavities. A better way to say it may be 'The dentist filled the cavities in her teeth' rather than trying to say 'The dentist filled the teeth's cavities.'


If one or more of your teeth are sensitive to only certain foods like chocolate does it mean you have a cavity?

No. Many people can have sensitive teeth. Use the toothpaste "Sensodyne". It takes a couple of weeks, but it helps. Heat, cold can cause your the gums/teeth to ache in some people. It's best to have at least a yearly dental check-up. If your teeth are sensitive to cold or hot only, it may be a cavity or it maybe receding gums or many other things. If your teeth are sensitive to sweets, including chocolate, there are good chances that there is a cavity and it is best to have it checked.

Considering mercury amalgam fillings are in many teeth and that such fillings must be disposed of as toxic hazardous waste when removed by a dentist is the air downwind of crematorium less safe?

Many crematoriums remove amalgams as well as devices such as pacemakers. The mercury vaporized is not particularly safe if inhaled. But the concentration would be very low.
