Hi FromAbove,

A really quick reply here... I would say that at least 60% of dentists do NOT recommend silver fillings nowadays. There are just too many nicer, stronger materials out there to use other than silver (or amalgum). Also, they are much much easier to work with! The dentists I've worked with do not like or recommend silver unless the patient strongly requests it;Some of them flat out refuse to place them at all! I've substituted a lot over the years and you'd be surprised how many dentists don't even stock silver (amalgum) anymore at ALL!

As for those sealants......don't waste your money, my friend. Sealants were meant for kids with newly erupted permanent teeth with no decay present to help prevent cavities through the "cavity prone years". Period. Go and buy yourself a sonicare electric toothbrush with the money you'd save by not having sealants. (Superb toothbrush by the way)

Namaste,
L.
