Tooth Colored Fillings (metal free fillings)

Traditionally, cavities and minor dental chips and cracks were repaired with amalgam (black colour) fillings. Though these materials offered durable, long lasting restoration for damaged teeth, they also marred the appearance of smile with their dark or silver color.

So, today, we almost always recommend tooth colored fillings(metal free fillings) like high strength composites, glass ionomers cements etc. Their placements are quick, comfortable and doesn’t require the removal of any healthy tooth structure.
