What is a Tooth-Colored Filling?

Tooth-colored fillings go by different names, such as white fillings or composite fillings. This is because our fillings can be shaded to match the natural color of your surrounding tooth. Made from a combination of high-quality dental glass-ceramic and plastics, tooth-colored fillings contain no metal.

What are the Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings?

Compared to traditional silver fillings, tooth-colored restorations offer a variety of benefits, such as:

Your filling will blend in with the rest of your smile for a natural-looking restoration
The filling material chemically bonds to your tooth structure to support your restoration
Tooth-colored fillings require less tooth removal, allowing you to keep more of your natural tooth structure
The material is very versatile and can be used to correct a variety of cosmetic dental flaws, such as worn down enamel, discolorations, chips, and cracks
Because they contain no metal, tooth-colored fillings won’t discolor your teeth

How Long Do Dental Fillings Last?

The lifetime of your veneers will depend on the type of veneer you choose for your smile, as well as your overall oral well-being. Composite veneers typically last ten years before needing to be replaced. Porcelain veneers typically last 10-15 years. No matter which veneer you choose, be sure to practice good dental hygiene, and schedule regular checkups to keep your veneers in great condition for years to come.

How Long Do Tooth-colored Fillings Last?

With good at-home care and regularly scheduled checkups, your filling will last 5-10 years. The resin may chip over time and will eventually need to be replaced. Be sure to visit our office for repairs if you experience any issues with your filling.

Are Tooth-colored Fillings Safe for Kids?

Yes, our tooth-colored fillings are FDA-approved and safe for patients of all ages. Because they contain no metal, tooth-colored fillings won’t stain or discolor your teeth or gums.
