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 The Mayhill Dental and Specialist Centre 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 The Mayhill Dental and Specialist Centre in Monmouth 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 01600 712020 .

Credit is due for the personal attention, professional service and good humour from Sarah and Holly in the first appointment and for Tracey and Casey in the second appointment. They were of a high order to their personal credit. As I said to Sarah and Tracey while they deserve credit so do Holly and Casey supporting them. They concurred!

Great staff and service.

Attention and care cannot be faulted. Compared to my previous experiences at a previous dentist, though less costly, they were poor. Happy to pay the price for the exceptional care at Mayhill on offer.

10th June 2025

My dentist is professional, has time to discuss and explain all options, he gives great feedback is very encouraging on what I need to do and remember ( or does his homework before I arrive ) as Iv had a few problems they have been amazing at working through which makes me feel valued.

10th June 2025

It felt as if nothing was too much trouble for everyone looking after me that morning. The receptionists, dental nurses and both of the dentists. Absolutely wonderful care and loving attention.

7th June 2025

I have built a wonderful rapport with the team at Mayhill. They are extremely knowledgeable, and explain everything very clearly. In the two years I've been there, I have completely transformed my daily brushing routine with the amazing support of Tracy the hygienist, and completely overcome my fear of dental treatment. I was even able to have a tooth extraction performed without sedation, which I never dreamt would be possible, since I was such a nervous patient when I started. Transfering to Mayhill was one of the best decisions I have ever made for my health and wellbeing
