Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are used to repair damages and fill the cavities on the teeth. Several materials are used for filling including gold, silver, porcelain or composite resin fillings. The modern tooth colored composite prevents the filling to fade to gray in time and the filling preserves its original color. It is a durable solution with a long life expectancy, and it helps the patient to achieve the desired smile. Fillings can be made in many colors and tones to perfectly match the patients natural teeth.
