White fillings blend in with the colour of your tooth for an attractive smile. They are used as an alternative to amalgam or silver fillings.
A plastic resin composite is used to make white fillings. The filling is colour-matched to your own teeth to blend in with the tooth for a natural look that blends in with the surrounding teeth.
White fillings are used when a filling is needed for a tooth which has been damaged by decay. More people are opting for white fillings because of their cosmetic benefits. Besides filling cavities, white fillings are also able to repair worn, fractured or broken teeth.
Silver amalgam fillings have traditionally been used to fill molars and back teeth because of their durability. The latest advances in the materials used in white fillings has since made them more of a match to amalgam when it comes to strength. White fillings can now be placed anywhere in the mouth.
