Understanding Dental Materials

Dental materials like metal fillings, zirconia, gold, and ceramics serve different purposes in oral health care. Zirconia is strong and commonly used for crowns and implants but can wear differently than enamel. Gold, although expensive, is biocompatible and long-lasting, making it a conservative restoration choice. Proper removal and replacement of toxic materials like metal fillings with safe alternatives such as resin fillings or high-quality gold is advisable to prevent further harm.
