What Is Composite Restoration?
Composite restoration is a technique that repairs decayed or damaged teeth using a durable, tooth colored resin. It’s more than just a basic filling, it’s a cosmetic and functional solution that restores your tooth as closely as possible to its original shape and appearance.
Unlike traditional silver (amalgam) fillings, composite fillings are made to bond directly to your tooth and match its natural shade. That means:
Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings
-
Aesthetically pleasing: Blends with your natural teeth—no more gray spots when you smile.
-
Minimally invasive: Requires less removal of healthy tooth structure.
-
Durable and long-lasting: Holds up well under pressure for chewing and biting.
-
Mercury-free: Safe, biocompatible materials for peace of mind.
-
Ideal for front or back teeth: Effective wherever you need a filling.
