White Fillings

Gone are the days of dark-coloured metal or amalgam fillings that make the teeth more unpleasant. White fillings are a popular and versatile option for restoring teeth affected by cavities, decay, or minor damage. Made from a tooth-colored resin, they offer a natural-looking aesthetic that blends seamlessly with your existing teeth. Beyond their cosmetic appeal, white fillings are also durable and can withstand moderate chewing forces. The bonding process used with white fillings also strengthens the tooth structure and can reduce the risk of future decay.

Unlike older amalgam fillings, composite fillings contain no mercury and are considered a safe and biocompatible option.

They require less tooth structure removal than amalgam fillings, preserving more of your natural tooth. While composite fillings are a great choice for many dental issues, they may not be suitable for larger cavities or areas under heavy biting pressure.  

The treatment may be an ideal solution for you if you have subtle to moderate traces of tooth decay. This dental filling not only seals up unsightly cosmetic dental issues, but can also remove the discomfort caused by decay and even reshape the teeth.

If you have old, grey amalgam fillings, we will replace them with dental fillings that will match the natural shade of your teeth. 

The treatment is quick and straightforward and requires less tooth preparation, so you don’t need to worry about sitting in the dentist chair for long hours. As soon as you leave the practice, your white dental fillings will reach their full strength so you can chew and bite normally again.

Never ignore even just the subtlest hint of tooth decay. For whiter, brighter smiles, contact All Smiles Dental Care today and we will gladly discuss a treatment option for you.
