Get BPA-Free Tooth-Colored Fillings At Young Dentistry for Children

Bis-Phenol A, or BPA, is a compound in some sealants and tooth-colored dental fillings that has been shown to be disruptive to the endocrine system. Fortunately, we at Young Dentistry for Children use filling and sealant materials that DO NOT contain BPA! 

If your child is in need of fillings, sealants or filling replacements, rest assured our products are BPA-free. Please contact us if you have any concerns about the materials used in our office and we would be happy to answer your questions.
