Tooth-Colored Composite Fillings
A Modern, Cosmetic Approach to Treating Cavities
When a cavity forms, early treatment is essential to prevent it from spreading deeper into the tooth. Tooth-colored composite fillings allow us to restore the damaged area while maintaining the natural look of your smile. Unlike older silver (amalgam) fillings, composites are made from a durable resin material that’s custom-matched to the exact shade of your natural teeth—making the restoration virtually invisible.
What Are Composite Fillings?
Composite fillings are made from a tooth-colored blend of resin and glass particles. This material bonds directly to your tooth structure, which means less drilling and more preservation of healthy enamel. Once placed, it hardens quickly and functions just like your natural tooth.
Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings:
Natural Appearance: Blends in with your existing tooth color for a seamless look
Minimally Invasive: Requires less removal of healthy tooth structure compared to metal fillings
Strong & Durable: Designed to withstand normal chewing pressure in both front and back teeth
Mercury-Free & Biocompatible: A safer, more modern alternative to traditional amalgam
Quick Treatment: Most fillings are completed in just one visit
When Do You Need a Filling?
Composite fillings are used to treat a variety of issues, including:
Small to moderate cavities caused by tooth decay
Minor cracks or chips in the tooth
Worn-down enamel from grinding or erosion
Replacing older metal fillings for a more cosmetic result
