Are White Fillings Right For You?

White fillings are an excellent choice for just about anyone.... We recommend them if you want a natural, seamless look.

Why Choose White Fillings?

• Your fillings will blend with your enamel, and other tooth stucture so you won’t even know they are there. ...
• Unlike metal fillings, composite fillings do not conduct heat, keeping tooth sensitivity to a minimum.
• Composite fillings are stable as temperatures rise and fall, unlike metal fillings. That means that they do not put strain on your teeth by expanding or contracting.
• Some people worry about the safety of metal fillings and may feel safer with composite fillings.
• White composite fillings are bonded to the teeth so they offer better retention and preserve the remaining natural tooth structure.
• There are number of tooth-coloured shades available in composite filling materials so this allows for exact shade matching.
• It is economical and hence the most widely used restorative material.
