Fillings

Fillings

Fillings are used to repair a hole in a tooth caused by decay. The most common type of filling is an amalgam made from a mixture of metals including mercury, silver, tin and copper.
Your dentist will offer the most appropriate type of filling according to your clinical needs. This includes white fillings, if appropriate.

In addition to restoring the tooth’s function, fillings help prevent further decay by sealing the affected area and protecting it from bacteria and food particles. Modern dentistry also offers advanced composite materials for fillings, designed to closely match the natural color of your teeth for a seamless appearance. Whether you need a durable amalgam filling or an aesthetically pleasing white filling, our team ensures a comfortable procedure tailored to your specific needs, preserving both your oral health and smile.
