Composite Dental Fillings
At Staina House Dental Practice, we are pleased to offer white fillings, also known as tooth-coloured or composite fillings.
Our dental fillings are primarily made from high-quality composite resin – a durable blend of resin and fine glass particles. Expertly crafted to match the natural colour and shape of your teeth, composite fillings restore strength and function, as well as enhance the appearance of your smile. This makes them an ideal choice for those seeking a cosmetic solution that supports long-term oral health.
Dental Filling Treatment
Composite fillings can be placed to treat decayed or broken teeth. Whether addressing newly diagnosed decay or replacing old amalgam (silver) fillings, our dentists provide a suitable procedure for both front and back teeth.
We use tooth-coloured, adhesive materials that bond directly to the tooth structure. Unlike some alternative filling materials, this adhesive allows our dentists to preserve as much of the healthy part of the tooth as possible. This approach can reduce the likelihood of complications and the need for further treatment following your dental filling.
Dental Inlays and Onlays
In certain cases, there may not be enough healthy tooth structure remaining to support a direct composite filling. When this happens, a dental inlay or onlay may be a suitable alternative. These restorations are crafted from durable, tooth-coloured materials such as porcelain or composite resin, offering both strength and a natural appearance. Custom-made in a dental laboratory, inlays and onlays are securely bonded to the tooth using advanced adhesive techniques, similar to those used for direct fillings.
Inlays and onlays provide extra strength for teeth considered more fragile or compromised. The dental laboratory we use is highly experienced in creating natural-looking dental inlays and onlays.
