Cosmetic Filling / Tooth Colored Fillings
Your glistening and charming smile can be entirely affected by the contrast of ugly black or silver fillings. This is easily rectified by replacing the old fillings with tooth coloured cosmetic fillings.
Amalgam/silver fillings have been used for many years and they are functionally very good, but really do spoil the appearance of nice teeth if you need to "open wide"(Big Smile).
Amalgam fillings contain the toxic substance - mercury, which is considered unsafe, hence must be removed with care.
Aesthetics are not the only advantage over silver fillings. As silver does not stick to teeth, lot of healthy tooth structure is usually removed to keep a silver filling in place. Composite Cosmetic Fillings permit us to remove only the decayed area of your tooth, thereby saving lot of tooth structure.
Unlike silver fillings, composites bond directly to the tooth providing support. Composites can be used to fill in cracks, chips and gaps - and will match the colour of your other teeth.
