Fillings. Fillings are used to repair a cavity in your tooth caused by decay. The most common type of filling is dental amalgam, made from a mixture of mercury and different metals. Dental amalgam fillings are often used on your back teeth as they are hard-wearing.
The facts on fillings: Amalgam vs. resin composite. You and your dentist have several choices when it comes to selecting materials to fill cavities. Among the choices are tooth-colored fillings made of resin-based composite and traditional dental fillings made of metal amalgam. Amalgam is more durable and less expensive than resin; however, resin fillings mimic the appearance of natural teeth, making them much less visible than amalgam fillings.
