DISCREET & DURABLE
why choose white fillings?
Unlike traditional silver fillings, which can darken over time and stand out when you talk or laugh, white fillings are designed to be completely invisible. Because the composite material bonds directly to your enamel, it supports the remaining structure of your tooth—helping to prevent future cracks or breaks. It is the modern, metal-free way to restore both the strength and the natural beauty of your smile in a single visit.
RESTORING YOUR SMILE
When Are White Fillings Needed?
-
Treating New Decay
If a tooth has developed a small cavity, a white filling is the ideal way to restore it. The composite material seals the space perfectly, stopping decay in its tracks and protecting the tooth from further damage without affecting its appearance. -
Repairing Chipped or Worn Teeth
Whether you have chipped a tooth in a minor accident or have noticed edges becoming worn down over time, composite resin can be beautifully shaped to rebuild your tooth’s original form and strength. -
Replacing Old Metal Fillings
If you have older silver amalgam fillings that make you feel self-conscious when you laugh or speak, we can safely replace them. Upgrading to modern white fillings instantly brightens your smile and helps reinforce the surrounding tooth.

White Fillings frequently asked questions
Modern composite materials are incredibly strong. While traditional metal amalgam is famously tough, high-quality composite resin is chemically bonded directly to the tooth, reinforcing its structure rather than just wedging into it. With good oral hygiene and regular checkups, white fillings typically last between 7 to 10 years (and often longer), making them a highly durable and far more discreet choice.
A standard white filling is a very straightforward, single-visit treatment. Depending on the size and location of the cavity, it usually takes between 30 to 60 minutes per tooth. Because we cure and harden the composite resin instantly using a special light, you can leave the clinic with a fully functional tooth ready for normal use.
Not at all. Your comfort is our top priority. We use a topical numbing gel on the area before gently administering a local anaesthetic, ensuring you feel completely relaxed and pain-free throughout. It is quite common to experience some mild, temporary sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures for a few days after the treatment, but this quickly settles.
Yes, absolutely. White fillings are made from a biocompatible composite resin consisting of fine glass and plastic particles. They are 100% metal-free and mercury-free, making them an excellent, health-conscious, and safe choice for restoring teeth in both adults and children.
