Who Is It For?
Composite fillings are an excellent solution for individuals who need to repair cavities, chips, or minor tooth damage while maintaining a natural appearance.
This treatment is ideal for those who:
• Have tooth decay (cavities) that need to be treated.
• Want a discreet, tooth-colored filling instead of silver amalgam fillings.
• Have chipped, worn, or broken teeth that need restoration.
• Need to replace old, metal fillings with a more aesthetic alternative.
• Desire a strong, durable, and natural-looking restoration.
Composite fillings blend seamlessly with natural teeth, providing an effective and minimally invasive solution for restoring function and appearance.
How It Works
Composite fillings are made from a tooth-colored resin material that is carefully applied, shaped, and hardened to restore the tooth’s structure.
✔ Removes decay and prevents further tooth damage.
✔ Blends seamlessly with the natural tooth color.
✔ Preserves more of the natural tooth compared to traditional metal fillings.
✔ Durable & long-lasting, providing strength and protection.
✔ Safe & mercury-free, offering an alternative to amalgam fillings.
The treatment is quick, effective, and comfortable, ensuring your tooth is fully restored while maintaining a natural appearance.
What to Expect
The Treatment Process
-
Assessment & Diagnosis – Your dentist will examine the affected tooth during a separate assessment appointment—often part of a routine dental exam—and discuss the most appropriate treatment plan with you.
-
Decay Removal & Tooth Preparation – At your treatment appointment, any decayed or damaged parts of the tooth will be carefully removed.
-
Composite Application – The tooth-coloured filling material is applied in layers and sculpted to closely match the natural shape of your tooth.
-
Curing & Polishing – A special light is used to harden the material, and the filling is polished for a smooth, natural finish.
How Long Do Composite Fillings Last?
• With proper care, composite fillings can last 5-10 years or longer.
• Good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups help maintain the longevity of your filling.
