COMPOSITE (WHITE) FILLINGS

Our practice is amalgam (Mercury) free. We use high quality composite materials and direct bonding techniques for all our restorations.

Tooth-coloured fillings are made to match your teeth exactly for a more aesthetically appealing restoration. Amalgam fillings tend to become dark or even black over time, which many people dislike. Additionally, when an amalgam filling is placed, healthy tooth structure must be removed to create retention grooves. Tooth-coloured fillings bond with the tooth, which not only creates a tighter seal but can also strengthen the tooth against fracture.
