Tooth-coloured composite and amalgam fillings to restore teeth affected by decay or damage.
About the Treatment
A dental filling restores a tooth damaged by decay or trauma. Decay is removed and the cleaned cavity filled with restorative material.
Composite (tooth-coloured) fillings match the surrounding tooth shade and bond directly to the tooth. The most common option for visible teeth.
Amalgam fillings are a silver-coloured alloy — durable and may be recommended in certain clinical situations for back teeth.
Most fillings are completed in a single appointment under local anaesthesia. Some post-operative sensitivity is common for a few days.
