When it comes to addressing a cavity, Care Dental dentists exclusively utilise aesthetically pleasing white fillings, or composite resin fillings. The process is straightforward and minimally invasive. First, we start by numbing the affected area to ensure your comfort during the procedure. We then remove the decayed portion of the tooth, leaving behind a clean and healthy surface. Afterward, we carefully bond and shape the tooth-colored composite resin material to match the natural shade and contours of your teeth. This not only restores the tooth’s structural integrity but also blends seamlessly with your smile. The result is a durable and cosmetically appealing restoration that protects your tooth from further decay.
White fillings offer several advantages over traditional dental amalgam fillings. Firstly, their natural appearance allows them to blend in with your existing teeth, making them virtually indistinguishable. This aesthetic benefit is especially valuable for visible areas of the mouth. Additionally, composite resin fillings require less removal of healthy tooth structure during placement, preserving the tooth’s integrity. They also bond directly to the tooth, providing added strength and stability. Furthermore, white fillings are free from mercury, addressing concerns related to the potential toxicity of amalgam fillings. Overall, white fillings not only restore your dental health but also enhance the beauty and longevity of your smile.
