A Natural Approach to Restoring Teeth
Composite dental fillings are a modern alternative to traditional metal fillings. Made from a durable resin that matches the color of your natural teeth, these fillings are designed to blend in seamlessly and restore both the appearance and function of a damaged tooth. Whether caused by decay, fractures or wear, tooth damage can now be repaired in a way that feels and looks natural.
Patients often choose composite fillings because of their discreet appearance. Unlike silver fillings, which are easily noticeable, tooth-colored fillings are virtually invisible when you smile or speak.
Strength Meets Aesthetics
Beyond aesthetics, composite materials are strong and versatile. The resin bonds directly to the surface of the tooth, which helps support the remaining tooth structure and reduces the risk of future breakage. This added strength means the tooth can continue to function normally and withstand everyday use.
The placement process is quick and comfortable. After removing the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth, our dentists will shape and layer the composite material, carefully hardening it with a special curing light. Once polished, the filling looks and feels like a natural part of your tooth.
Long-Lasting and Easy to Maintain
Composite fillings are known for their durability and resistance to wear. With proper oral hygiene and regular dental checkups, they can last for many years. They also respond well to repairs, meaning small adjustments can be made if needed without removing the entire filling.
These fillings are also free of metal and mercury, making them a popular choice for patients seeking a more biocompatible solution. They are safe, reliable and ideal for repairing both front and back teeth.
If you need to restore a tooth and prefer a natural-looking result, composite dental fillings offer an excellent solution. Our dentists are here to help you maintain a strong, beautiful and confident smile.
