Abrasive toothpaste linked to increased sensitivity

Gold Restorations

Gold castings are dentistry's best restorative materials; however, they are being used less and less. Convenience, cosmetics, economics, psychology and insufficient technical training are a few of the reasons why dentists are resorting to more expedient materials and procedures.

In our quest to provide optimum oral health care, I feel it is our duty to advise all patients of the benefits of both gold inlays and gold foil restorations. There is no material used in dentistry that has the same durability, biocompatibility, and functional ability as a gold restoration.

In over a decade of practice, I have learned that people appreciate dental restorations that last. With the limited life span of amalgam and composite restorations, gold is the only material that provides a lasting treatment for dental disease. Although no material can better replace what nature provided us from birth, gold is our best alternative.
