They restore teeth from decay without drawing attention.
White ‘tooth-coloured’ composite fillings are made from tooth-coloured composite resin. They’re used when a tooth sustains mild damage or mild to moderate decay.
During your routine dentist appointments, your dentist will examine your teeth carefully to look for signs of decay or damage. A White ‘tooth-coloured’ composite filling locks out bacteria from re-entering your tooth and causing further decay and serious damage to the tooth.
The benefits of white ‘tooth-coloured’ composite fillings:
Many patients come to us requesting to have their old amalgam fillings replaced with a less visible alternative.
This is something we can carry out for you.
During your routine dentist appointments, we will check your dental work to make sure it isn’t cracked or damaged. Should we find this is the case, we will suggest having it replaced.
You can expect your filling to last for up to 10 years.
The lifespan will depend on how well you look after your teeth and how often you visit the dentist for check-ups.
Missing your routine check-ups could result in a cavity (a hole in your tooth) going undetected and causing serious damage that requires a more substantial restoration like a crown.
Tooth decay is the rotting of a tooth.
When bacteria become stuck in the nooks and crannies of your teeth, they break down its structure and can eventually cause a hole in the tooth.
When this happens, a filling is needed to repair the tooth and seal out bacteria.
