Let Sleeping Dogs Lie!

Some of you may be tempted to have all of your old fillings removed and new tooth colored ones placed.

While most likely your teeth will be fine, anytime a tooth is stressed by dental work, there is a chance that your tooth will have an adverse reaction, and could end up needing a root canal.

I've seen it happen too often, a sound filling or crown gets removed and replaced, then the tooth needs a root canal, and subsequently a crown.

INFORMED CONSENT, IS KEY!
