Dental Fillings Mackay

Tooth-Coloured Fillings

Decaying, chipped, cracked, broken or damaged teeth are all very common problems that require a dental restoration. At times even existing fillings may need to be replaced due to wear, age and breakages.

White “tooth-coloured” restorations are becoming more and more popular with their ability to closely match the colour and appearance of your natural tooth. White fillings not only restore teeth, they may also be used cosmetically to change the shape, size and colour of a tooth.

White fillings are called Composite Resin fillings, the material is made from a mixture of glass compounds and plastics, and it is durable, resistant and can also closely mimic the colour or your existing tooth.

For cosmetic purposes, we can replace existing amalgam fillings with white fillings to allow for a more pleasing, silver-free smile. With advanced improvements in modern dentistry white coloured restorations are now a sought-after treatment.
