White Fillings
White fillings, also called composite or porcelain fillings, are made from tooth-coloured materials that restore the natural appearance of a decayed or previously filled tooth.
Composite resins are more commonly used in tooth bonding procedures where the tooth-coloured resin is used to change the shape or colour of your teeth in order to increase its size or repair a defect. This is ideal for lesser dental work as it is reasonably priced and the results are painless and immediate. This procedure also has additional benefits as it can often be performed without the use of local anaesthetic and usually only requires one visit.
