I saw “gold filling”. and thought of teeth. Wonder why (they) to amalgam fillings (not)! Things I wish I had known!

Gold fillings are an alloy of multiple metals, including gold, silver, copper, zinc palladium, and/or platinum.

> They cause the least wear on opposing teeth and are gentler on your mouth compared to porcelain, which can cause wear of your natural tooth.

>Being malleable, gold can effectively seal the margin of the tooth for preventing any breakdown of enamel or further tooth decay.

>Gold is corrosion-resistant, prevents chipping or fractures, and provides long-lasting dental restoration.

>High polished gold crowns significantly reduce plaque accumulation and present a more pleasant feeling to the tongue.

>Potentially last for decades
