At Terrace Dental Care in Dawlish, we use modern tooth coloured fillings to restore teeth in a way that blends seamlessly with your natural smile. Unlike traditional silver (amalgam) fillings, these restorations are designed to match the colour of your teeth, giving you strength, durability, and a discreet finish.
Organise Your VisitHaving a filling is a routine, straightforward procedure. After gently numbing the area, we remove any decay or old filling material and prepare the tooth. The composite resin is then carefully applied in layers, hardened with a special light, and shaped to match the natural contours of your tooth. Finally, the filling is polished to ensure a smooth, comfortable finish.
Why Choose Tooth Coloured Fillings
Tooth coloured fillings are made from a strong, composite material that bonds directly to the tooth. They not only restore function but also enhance appearance, making them a popular choice for patients who want a healthier, more natural-looking smile.
Benefits include:
- Aesthetic results that blend with your teeth
- Strong and durable restoration
- Less removal of healthy tooth compared to amalgam fillings
- A mercury-free, modern alternative
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, tooth coloured fillings can last for many years. Our team will give you tailored advice on how to look after your restoration and keep your smile healthy.
