White Fillings
Do you hate those ugly black fillings in your mouth? Do they show when you laugh or smile? These fillings can be replaced, so your teeth will look the way nature intended.
If a small to medium sized filling is needed, a composite material will be used to match the color of your natural tooth. This material has been the cutting-edge material in dentistry for the past several years. They last as long as amalgam when used in the right situation and allow us to remove less of your natural tooth structure than amalgam. White fillings are placed in a single visit.
Replacement of larger fillings may require the use of tooth-colored crowns or overlays to protect and strengthen the remaining tooth structure and minimize the chance of tooth fracture.
Both direct composites and overlays offer advantages over previous procedures.
- Since they are bonded to your tooth, they eliminate the need for extensive removal of tooth structure.
- Bonding can also strengthen your tooth.
- Of course, they also look like natural teeth!
