We have a range of treatments on offer which we can discuss!

Some are amalgam, some are ‘white’ for the natural look. The white ones have become more popular because some people feel conscious about their ‘silver’ ones. We can replace old fillings with white ones, and you will be amazed at the selection of shades available, and how long the modern materials last!

So, what are white fillings? They are constructed from tiny particles of glass and synthetic resin. Although they used to be considered less durable than the traditional fillings, that’s no longer the case. Before filling a tooth we look at the bigger picture of your oral health, and consider if there are any other options. If a filling is necessary, anaesthesia is used so you will be pain-free, and we shape the filling carefully to make it as unobtrusive as possible. Finally, we check your bite is not altered and make final adjustments if necessary. We can advise you as to which filling will work best for you – that is what we are here for! Sometimes a tooth may have external damage such as a chip or fracture and this can often be remedied with composite bonding.  We take a composite resin and this is attached to a tooth and then shaped to restore it’s original appearance.
