White Fillings
Most people end up needing to get a filling or two during their life and you may find yourself in a similar position. There can be varied reasons as to why you may need a filling. Teeth may need fillings due to decay, wear, or fractures. Now, with modern techniques, fillings require less removal of tooth tissue and can match your tooth colour so that your smile can stay beautiful.
What we offer:
- Unlike the traditional metal fillings, we prefer using white (tooth-coloured) fillings for both functional and cosmetic reasons. White fillings create a strong seal with your tooth, preventing bacteria entry, while metal fillings often require more tooth tissue removal.
- We offer various shades of white fillings to match your tooth colour, using high-quality materials and adhesive. The process involves preparing the tooth, applying adhesive, moulding the soft filling material to your tooth shape, and hardening it with a special light for a natural look.
- Our dentists are highly experienced in placing white fillings, ensuring a seamless blend with your natural teeth, making them less noticeable when you smile or laugh.

As you can see the change makes a dramatic difference; one that will make you feel more at ease with your smile.
