Tooth-Coloured Composite Fillings

Looking for tooth-coloured fillings that blend perfectly with your smile? At Sol Smiles Dental Clinic, we specialize in composite fillings that restore damaged or decayed teeth while maintaining a natural appearance.

Unlike traditional silver fillings, tooth-coloured composite fillings are made from high-quality resin that matches your tooth shade, ensuring both function and aesthetics. Whether you have a small cavity or a chipped tooth, our skilled dentists provide durable and seamless restorations with precision and care.

Composite fillings are advanced alternative to silver (amalgam) fillings. They are made of a tooth-coloured resin material that bonds directly to your tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and appearance. These fillings can be used to:

• Repair cavities or tooth decay
• Restore chipped, broken, or worn teeth
• Replace old or metal fillings for a natural look

Composite fillings not only protect your tooth but also improve your smile’s overall appearance, making them a popular choice for patients of all ages.

You might need a composite filling if you experience:

• Tooth decay or small cavities
• Cracks or chips in a tooth
• Broken or discoloured existing fillings
• Tooth sensitivity to hot or cold
• Minor gaps between teeth

Getting fillings early helps prevent progression of caries, infection, and the need for more extensive treatments like root canals or crowns.

At Sol Smiles Dental Clinic, our dentists ensure that your composite filling treatment is quick, painless, and comfortable.

1. Examination & Diagnosis: The dentist identifies the decayed or damaged area during examination and if needed X-rays are advised to confirm the depth of the caries.
2. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is given (if required) to ensure a painless experience.
3. Cleaning the Tooth: The decayed portion of the tooth is carefully removed.
4. Bonding Process: A bonding agent is applied to help the filling adhere to your tooth.
5. Filling & Shaping: The tooth-coloured composite material is placed in layers, shaped, and molded to match your tooth’s natural contours.
6. Curing: Each layer is hardened using a special blue light.
7. Polishing: The final filling is polished to give a smooth, natural finish that blends perfectly with your other teeth.

The entire procedure usually takes 30–45 minutes per tooth.

Apart from removing the decayed portion and preventing further progression of cavities, tooth-coloured fillings offer several additional benefits.

• It matches the natural shade of your teeth
• Bonds directly to the tooth structure
• Preserves the tooth as there is minimal removal of healthy tooth structure
• Mercury-free so it is non-toxic and biocompatible
• Can repair cavities, chips, or cracks
