Thanks for the article, I love the parsing of myths and facts.

The truth is that dental fillings can last for many years with proper care, and only need to be replaced if they become damaged or decayed. Additionally, advances in dental technology have led to the development of new materials, such as composite resin, that can provide a more natural appearance and may be preferred by some patients.
One of the most common myths surrounding dental fillings is that silver amalgam fillings are dangerous and can lead to health problems. In reality, numerous studies have shown that silver amalgam fillings are safe and effective, and are still used by many dentists today. Other myths include the belief that all fillings need to be replaced every few years or that they can cause sensitivity or discomfort.
