A special word about gold restorations:
Dr. Joe Newell is an expert at restoring teeth with cast gold or gold foil
restorations. These restorations can be placed so that they are hidden from
view. Very little gold is visible.
Why would you want gold? Unfortunately, this is dentistry's best kept secret
in this era of cosmetic procedures. Why gold? Because it is the most bio-compatible
and longest lasting material to restore teeth. It has virtually the same
coefficient of expansion as tooth enamel. It also has the same wear rate
as tooth enamel. It requires less tooth reduction thereby lessening the restoration
trauma to the tooth. Gum tissues react best near gold.
As life expectancies increase, you want to use a material that will last a
long time. Gold restorations can last a life time. Typical crowns and fillings
last only one-fifth the amount of time compared to gold! We want you to understand
this gold restoration option, and yet still
feel free to choose among all your alternatives.
Dr. Joe Newell's motto is "Fix your teeth once
and forget about it!" He
likes to call gold restorations a "Retirement
Plan for Teeth."
