Tooth Coloured Fillings – Metal Filling Replacement

Fillings are also referred to as restorative dentistry. That is because a filling restores the tooth, keeping it in its natural shape and supporting the strength of the tooth so it can function as it is designed to do.

A dentist would suggest a filling where they thought that a cavity or a hole in a tooth would compromise the health of the tooth or create an area for a crack to form, the tooth to break or allow a hidden pocket for food to deposit, creating the possibility of an infection to form, causing issues such as toothache for you if it is left untreated.

What is a filling?

Fillings are now completed using a tooth-coloured composite resin material, which comes in a multitude of natural tooth shades so a colour match can easily be made with your natural tooth colour.

Unlike the previous amalgam fillings, this tooth-coloured filling material blends seamlessly with the tooth making the filling site and your mouth much more visually appealing.
