White fillings

A filling replaces part of a tooth that has been lost because of decay or through accidental damage. White or tooth coloured fillings provide a healthier, more natural looking alternative to traditional silver or amalgam fillings. They also allow for a minimally invasive restoration which means that more of your natural tooth can be preserved.

There are many benefits of white filling over a traditional 'siliver' (amalgam) filling;

Metal free
Less noticeable than silver fillings which turn black in the mouth
Comes in a range of shades so can be matched to the colour of your own teeth
Needs less preparation than a silver filling which means you keep more healthy tooth tissue for longer
