White fillings are tooth-coloured fillings made from composite resin used to restore decayed or damaged teeth.
Your tooth decay can now be repaired whilst keeping your smile bright. Gone are the metallic grey and brown fillings of the past!
A smile is a precious thing. Thanks to modern materials and our team of expert dentists, we can treat tooth decay without leaving behind an obvious filling. Using composite resin, we’re able to match the colour precisely to your existing teeth.
At Battersea Smiles, we offer high-quality white fillings that not only restore your dental health but also enhance the appearance of your smile.
In most cases, white composite resin fillings are used for small treatments in visible areas, such as your front teeth. We may still recommend amalgam fillings for larger treatments on rear teeth, where wear is higher.
White fillings are a modern dental solution used to fill cavities or repair chipped or cracked teeth. The composite resin material used in white fillings is durable and closely matches the colour of your natural teeth. This makes white fillings an excellent option for visible teeth, as they provide a more aesthetically pleasing result compared to silver amalgam fillings.
The process of getting a white filling is straightforward. After removing the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth, our dentist will apply the composite resin in layers, carefully shaping it to match your tooth’s natural contours. The filling is then hardened using a special light and polished for a smooth finish.
Aesthetic Appeal: White fillings blend in with your natural teeth, making them nearly invisible.
Strength and Durability: Modern composite materials are strong and can withstand the forces of chewing.
Less Invasive: White fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, often requiring less removal of healthy tooth tissue.
Versatility: White fillings can be used to repair teeth that are decayed, chipped, or broken.
At Battersea Smiles, we prioritise both the health and appearance of your smile. Our experienced dentists use the latest techniques and high-quality materials to provide durable and natural-looking white fillings. Whether you need to replace an old filling or treat a new cavity, our team is here to ensure you receive the best possible care.
In addition to their aesthetic advantages, white fillings are a mercury-free option, which is a significant consideration for many patients. We strive to create a comfortable and stress-free environment, ensuring that your experience with white fillings in Battersea is as pleasant as possible.
Our dentists are trained to make the experience as comfortable as possible. A local anaesthetic will be used to numb the area, and we amigo complete the filling in one appointment.
