White Fillings

We provide dental restoration through white fillings. White fillings are usually made from resin, composite or porcelain materials. To enhance the tooth structure naturally, the dentist will determine if there is tooth decay and will remove it if necessary. Afterwards, the dentist will treat the decayed tooth or teeth prior to filling it or them with white filling.

Amalgam Fillings Replacement

When restoring damaged teeth, our dentists will use white fillings in replacing mercury amalgam fillings. This has always been a healthier and more appealing option for tooth or teeth restoration. Mercury has relatively high levels of toxicity risk. Metal fillings also detract the natural look of the teeth. As such, white fillings are a healthier option as it mimics the teeth including the color.

Inlays and Onlays Creation

White fillings are used in filling inner tooth cavities that are damaged by tooth decay. Tooth decay can erode the enamel and expose the inner dentin. With white filling, the inner tooth structure can be rebuilt, protecting the teeth from further damages caused by tooth decay. White fillings, thus, also strengthen the structure of the teeth.

White fillings are also utilized in filling tattered tooth cusp specifically inside the inner molar tooth or teeth. Typically, porcelain crowns are used in onlays restoring the outer surfaces of the tooth or teeth. This leads to a healthier biting and chewing ability.

Tooth Decay Prevention

The key purpose of white filling is restoring damaged teeth. However, fillings can be also used in preventing tooth decay to develop inside the pulp or roots of the inner teeth. Composite fillings are used in restoring chipped and fractured teeth for healthier function and structure. Improved teeth structure prevents the food from getting trapped and thus preventing plaque and tartar to develop. This is how white fillings prevent the onset of tooth decay.

Veneers Sculpturing

White composite helps sculpt veneers, which when done, this can lead to further enhancement of tooth quality. For those patients who want more sparkling smile yet are cost-prohibited may opt for white fillings instead starting from a tooth or a few teeth.
