White Filling


Old unsightly silver fillings can now be replaced with esthetic filling materials such as resins and porcelain. This type of restoration matches your natural tooth colour and is aesthetically pleasing.

Composite Resin Fillings (White)


A major advantage of this type of restoration is that they match the tooth colour and are aesthetically pleasing.

Composites are made of a mixture of plastic and acrylic materials such as polymer matrix, quartz and lithium aluminium silicate. Polymerisation is a process in which a resin material changes from a plastic state into a hardened restoration. They are also capable of bonding directly to the tooth structure reducing the possibility of leakage.

The length of time that it takes to perform a composite resin restoration depends on the size of the restoration. A composite resin restoration will restore the tooth to its original function with an aesthetically pleasing result.
