What are Tooth-Colored Fillings?
Tooth-colored fillings, also known as composite fillings, are dental restorations used to repair cavities or minor damage in teeth. Made from a durable resin material that matches the natural shade of your tooth, these fillings restore function and appearance without the noticeable look of silver (amalgam) fillings.
How Do Tooth-Colored Fillings Help and What Are the Benefits?
Tooth-colored fillings not only restore decayed or damaged teeth but also blend seamlessly with your natural smile:
- Match the color of your natural teeth for a discreet appearance.
- Bond directly to the tooth structure, strengthening the tooth.
- Preserve more natural tooth compared to metal fillings.
- Free from mercury and metal.
- Durable and long-lasting with proper care.
- Can be used on front and back teeth.
- Ideal for repairing chips, cracks, and small cavities.
