Tooth Fillings: Enhancing Strength & Aesthetics with Tooth-Colored Restorations

Tooth-Colored Restorations

Tooth-colored restorations offer a natural-looking solution for fillings, matching the shade of your natural teeth while also reinforcing weakened areas. These restorations are both aesthetically pleasing and durable, thanks to advanced bonding technologies.

Replacing Silver Fillings

Silver fillings, though durable, can wear down over time, leading to compromised protection and potential cavity exposure. Due to their pliability, silver fillings expand and contract, which can eventually cause them to fail. Replacing these with tooth-colored composite fillings ensures better cavity protection and a seamless appearance.

Advantages of Tooth-Colored Restorations

Tooth-colored fillings, such as resin onlays, provide a snug fit and are ideal when significant tooth structure is lost. These restorations maintain the integrity and strength of your tooth. Additionally, the fluoride content in resin helps prevent decay, and the material wears like natural teeth without requiring placement at the gum line, promoting healthier gums.
