At Novo Dental Practice, we’re dedicated to providing you with the highest quality dental care, including safe and effective white fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

What are white fillings?

White fillings, also known as composite fillings, are a popular alternative to traditional silver amalgam fillings. Made from a durable composite resin material, white fillings offer a natural appearance and are customised to match the colour of your teeth, providing a virtually invisible restoration.

How do white fillings work?

During your white filling procedure, Dr Leda will first remove any decayed or damaged tooth structure and clean the affected area. The composite resin material will then be applied in layers and carefully sculpted to restore the shape and function of your tooth. Once the filling is in place, it will be hardened with a special curing light, bonding it securely to the tooth.

Benefits of white fillings

Natural Appearance
White fillings blend effortlessly with your natural teeth, providing a discreet and aesthetically pleasing restoration.

Preservation of Tooth Structure
Unlike silver amalgam fillings, white fillings require minimal removal of healthy tooth structure, helping to preserve the strength and integrity of your tooth.

Biocompatibility
Composite resin materials used in white fillings are biocompatible and mercury-free, making them a safe and non-toxic option for dental restorations.

Versatility
White fillings can be used to repair cavities, chips, cracks, and other minor dental imperfections, restoring both the appearance and function of your smile.
