This is a dentist I have known for a long time which although I knew he was not the greatest, I did not believe he could do me harm. I was wrong. He recommended I have all of my silver fillings removed and replaced with the tooth colored material. This is when difficulties began. Since then I have had two failed root canals, an extraction of one of the failed root canals, and have pain in two more of the molars with the replacement fillings. I just had one of the fillings repaired because most of it had fallen out. It has been a disaster. To those of you considering having old silver fillings replaced just because they are old - I'd say don't do it!!! When you replace fillings more tooth enamel is removed. This can compromise the integrity of the tooth. The third endontist I saw told me that he has seen many, many root canals due to replacement fillings. He was not surprised to see me. Think this over carefully.
