What Are Tooth-Colored Fillings?
Tooth-colored fillings, also known as composite resins, are a popular alternative to traditional silver fillings. Made from a blend of plastic and fine glass particles, they are designed to match the color of your natural teeth for a seamless appearance.
The process of applying fillings starts with the removal of decayed tooth material. Next, the dentist applies the composite resin in layers, hardening each layer with a special curing light. Once the material is set, they shape and polish the filling to match your tooth’s natural contours.
Which Issues Can Tooth-Colored Fillings Address?
Tooth-colored fillings are ideal for treating cavities in the front and back teeth. They can restore decayed teeth, repair chipped or cracked teeth, and close small gaps between teeth.
These fillings are versatile, making them a great option for a variety of dental issues while maintaining a natural, unobtrusive look.

How Long Do Tooth-Colored Fillings Last?
With proper care, tooth-colored fillings can last anywhere from 5 to 10 years. Their longevity depends on factors like the size of the filling, the location, and your oral habits.
Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups will help ensure your fillings stay in good shape.
