Tooth Colored Fillings

Tooth-colored fillings, also known as composite fillings or resin composite fillings, are dental restoratives used to repair a tooth that is negatively affected by decay, fractures, or cracks.

Unlike amalgam fillings that are silver in color, tooth-colored fillings blend seamlessly with the natural color of your teeth, making them a more aesthetically pleasing option for repairing cavities, especially when the restoration is in a visible area.

Tooth-colored fillings are made of a mixture of plastic and fine glass particles. The composite resin material is biocompatible and comes in a variety of shades that can be matched to the color of the individual’s teeth, providing a natural look.

Tooth-colored fillings are a safe, effective, and aesthetic choice for dental restorations. If you’re interested in this type of filling, your dentist at Canal Dentistry can evaluate your particular case and discuss the best options for restoring your teeth to their natural beauty and function.
