Tooth Colour Restorations

Today there are two very real reasons why people are moving towards tooth colour restorations. Firstly they are becoming increasingly anxious about the use of amalgam due to its mercury content, and secondly the aesthetic considerations; they do not want to show off amalgam and gold.

White Fillings

There are now many techniques available to restore a broken or decayed tooth using a tooth coloured filling material. Here at The Dental Surgery we use both composite and porcelain restorations. Both these filling materials are matched to your own natural tooth colour. They are bonded by a special adhesive into your tooth, adding to the retention of the filling and sealing the tooth.
