About

White Fillings

Tooth-coloured fillings provide an effective solution for repairing cavities and restoring the health and function of your teeth. Cavities, caused by tooth decay, can lead to discomfort and further damage if left untreated. Our team of dentists use the highest quality materials to restore teeth, ensuring a durable and natural-looking result. Old amalgam fillings, that may have decayed or cracked, can also be replaced with a new tooth-coloured filling.

FAQ

How long do dental fillings last?

The lifespan of a filling depends on the material used and how well you care for your teeth. Composite resin fillings (tooth-coloured fillings) can last 5-7 years. Good oral hygiene and regular dental visits can extend the life of your fillings.

Does getting a filling hurt?

The procedure itself is generally painless because the area will be numbed with an anesthetic. You might feel some pressure during the process, but no pain. After the anesthesia wears off, there might be some temporary sensitivity or discomfort, which usually subsides on its own.

Why do I need a filling?

You may need a filling if you have a cavity (caused by tooth decay), a cracked or broken tooth, or teeth that are worn down from habits like nail-biting or tooth grinding. Fillings help restore the tooth and prevent further decay or damage.
