Our tooth-coloured and amalgam-free white fillings look right at home in your mouth, blending in with your smile and protecting your tooth.
A Natural-Looking Option
White fillings are tooth-coloured, so they won’t stand out when you open your mouth or smile.
Straightforward Treatment Process
The placement of white fillings involves adhering the filling directly to the tooth. This modern practice simplifies the filling process for the patient.
Little or No Structure Removed
In many cases, there is no need to remove a portion of your natural tooth, making white fillings a conservative way to repair your tooth.
Consultation
If you are new to the practice, a full dental examination must be completed, including a set of X-rays. You will be carefully examined to identify if a white filling is the appropriate treatment.
Treatment Visit
If you are happy to go ahead, we will book you for a treatment visit, during which anaesthetic is used to numb the tooth. The decay is cleaned out from within the tooth, and the filling matches your tooth shade. Your dentist will ensure it has been moulded to fit the tooth’s unique contours and shape.
Today’s white fillings are extremely hardwearing. They contain ceramics that are designed to reinforce their capacity to fend off tooth wear, so you can have the peace of mind that your bite is protected (providing you take good care of your teeth on a day-to-day basis).
White fillings can last an average of 7-15 years, though the exact timeframe will depend on how you care for them.
