I swear, it's less painful than a regulary filling. Unfortunately, every silver filing that I had my dentist change to white ended up needing a root canal. Dr. Massarat will have you in and out in less than 30 minutes. I never need pain meds after. I send all my friends, family and co-workers to him. I'm sure this sounds to good to be true, but just try having him do one tooth and you'll agree.
