mercury free
Dentist from Columbus offering mercury free and esthetic dentistry. Our practice is dedicated to your quality care and is pleased to reserve time exclusively for you. We attempt to schedule appointments that are most convenient for you and that fit your personal schedule. We respect our patients' time and make every effort to remain on schedule. Some visits are more complicated than initially anticipated, and emergencies may arise that could delay us. If we are significantly delayed, every effort will be made to notify you beforehand so you may choose to come later or reschedule. Most people recognize dental amalgams as silver fillings. Dental amalgam is a mixture of mercury free, and an alloy of silver, tin and copper. Mercury makes up about 45-50 percent of the compound. Mercury is used to bind the metals together and to provide a strong, hard durable filling. After years of research, mercury has been found to be the only element that will bind these metals together in such a way that can be easily manipulated into a tooth cavity. Our Columbus dentists can help you fix that.
esthetic dentistry
cosmetic dentist
Offers cosmetic dentists and tooth replacements. Dr. Barry is a member of the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), an organization of general cosmetic dentists who are dedicated to professional development and continuing education. All AGD members must remain current with advances in the profession to provide quality patient treatment. Oral health means more than just an attractive smile. Poor oral health and untreated oral diseases and conditions can have a significant impact on quality of life. And in many cases, the condition of the mouth mirrors the condition of the body as a whole. Recent reports indicate a relationship between periodontal (gum) disease and stroke, heart disease, and pre-term low-birth-weight babies. Likewise, more than 90 percent of all systemic diseases have oral manifestations, meaning Dr. Barry may be the first health care provider to diagnose a health problem.
