Tooth Coloured Fillings
Also known as composite fillings, are a mixture of hard plastics and resin. This type of filling is usually placed on front teeth where biting and chewing pressure is light to moderate. This may result in a smaller filling than that of an amalgam. Tooth coloured fillings are bonded in place using dental adhesives, often allowing us the opportunity to conserve as much tooth as possible during preparation.
The cost is moderate and depends largely on the size and type of the filling. Generally, placing a tooth coloured filling requires a longer appointment than an amalgam filling and they are subject to stain and discoloration over time.
