Tooth-coloured fillings are a modern, aesthetic alternative to traditional silver (amalgam) fillings. Made from a durable composite resin, they blend seamlessly with your natural tooth enamel — restoring strength while preserving the look of your smile.
Whether you’re repairing new decay or replacing old metal fillings, tooth-coloured options offer a safe, effective, and discreet solution. They’re bonded directly to the tooth structure, which means less drilling, more preservation of healthy tooth tissue, and a tighter, longer-lasting seal.
