Composite dental fillings are a popular choice for restoring teeth affected by cavities, cracks, or minor damage. Made from a tooth-colored resin material, composite fillings blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, making them an excellent option for those seeking an aesthetically pleasing result.
Unlike traditional amalgam fillings, which are silver in color, composite fillings can be closely matched to the shade of your existing teeth. This makes them ideal for visible areas like the front teeth. The procedure involves removing the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth and then filling it with the composite material. The material is applied in layers and hardened with a special light, ensuring a durable and long-lasting restoration.
