COMPOSITE FILLINGS
AT VOLITION SMILE, WE OFFER COMPOSITE FILLINGS TO OUR PATIENTS FOR A NATURAL LOOKING FINISH.
What is a composite filling?
composite fillings are essentially standard tooth fillings that are coloured to resemble the natural colour of your original tooth. They are also known as resin fillings, white fillings and tooth-coloured fillings.
What makes white fillings different?
Composite is the best choice if you want the most natural finish possible and for your fillings to be unnoticeable allowing for a more subtle finish that can help enhance your smile.
Is composite filling permanent?
As with most dental restorations, composite fillings are not permanent and may someday have to be replaced. However they are very durable, and with good oral hygiene will last for many years, giving you a long lasting, beautiful smile.
Do composite fillings hurt?
Our dentists use local anaesthetic to numb the area of your mouth that needs filling, making sure the tooth is completely numb before commencing filling procedure. With this approach you will not feel any pain or discomfort during treatment.
Is composite as functional as traditional fillings?
Composite fillings perform the exact same function as a traditional amalgam fillings.
They can also be easily sculpted and shaped into the correct anatomical shape of your tooth. This not only helps create a more uniform finish, but aids in better function too.
