Composite filling
Composite fillings, also known as tooth-colored or white fillings, are a popular dental restoration option used to fill cavities and repair minor tooth damage. These fillings are made of a composite resin material that closely matches the color of natural teeth, making them a more aesthetically pleasing choice compared to traditional silver amalgam fillings.
During a composite filling procedure, the dentist will first remove the decayed portion of the tooth and clean the area before applying the composite resin in layers. Each layer is hardened with a special light to bond it to the tooth. Once the filling is in place, the dentist will shape and polish it to match the contours of the tooth and ensure a natural appearance.
Composite fillings offer several benefits, including their ability to blend in with the natural tooth color, making them virtually invisible. They also bond directly to the tooth, providing additional support and helping to prevent further decay. Additionally, composite fillings require less removal of healthy tooth structure compared to amalgam fillings, making them a conservative choice for dental restorations.
Overall, composite fillings are a versatile and effective option for restoring teeth affected by decay or damage while maintaining a natural-looking smile.
