What Are Tooth-Colored Fillings?

Tooth-colored fillings are made from a durable composite resin that mimics the natural shade of your teeth. This material is used to fill cavities, repair minor fractures, and restore the structure of damaged teeth while ensuring a discreet, metal-free look.

Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings

  • Natural appearance – blends perfectly with your tooth color.

  • Strong and durable, providing long-lasting protection.

  • Preserves more natural tooth structure compared to metal fillings.

  • Mercury-free and biocompatible, making them a safer option.

  • Bonds directly to the tooth, reducing the risk of fractures.

How Does the Process Work?

  1. Examination & Preparation – We evaluate the affected tooth and remove any decay.

  2. Filling Application – A composite resin is applied in layers and sculpted for a perfect fit.

  3. Curing & Bonding – A special light hardens the material for a strong, lasting bond.

  4. Polishing & Final Adjustments – The filling is shaped and polished to match the surrounding tooth.
