Tooth decay is one of the most common tooth ailments worldwide, and the best treatment for it is fillings. Petersham Dental Practice is proud to offer white fillings, an effective treatment for cavities that is strong, lasting and undetectable. So, white fillings are an excellent treatment option, whether you’re suffering from tooth decay or simply want a more aesthetic option than your existing silver or amalgam fillings.

Why Do I Need a Filling?

Despite your best efforts to keep your teeth and gums healthy, tooth decay can still occur, resulting in cavities. Cavities can impact the appearance of your teeth and cause sensitivity, so if you find yourself with one, it’s best to get it treated.

What Are White Fillings?

As the name suggests, fillings work by filling the tooth cavity to retain strength in the tooth and reduce the risk of further decay or tooth loss. White fillings consist of a strong composite resin that bonds easily to your natural tooth. The white colour resembles your teeth and can be matched to your tooth colour for a natural appearance. Because of their superior bonding ability, they are less likely to become loose and need replacing.

White Filling Benefits

  •      They’re virtually invisible compared to silver fillings
  •      They’re strong
  •      They bond to your teeth better than silver fillings, so the natural structure of the tooth can be retained
  •      They are easier to replace if the filling is damaged
