Filling cavities these days also means improving your smile. Gone are the days leaving the dental office with a less than perfect, silvered smile. Materials and techniques in applying composite resin fillings have been vastly improved and repairing damaged tooth might look better than the original.
The non-metallic colour of composite resins is not only used to restore your tooth to healthy form and function, it is also preferred by many dental patients as the materials can match your teeth virtually perfectly. If you need or want to replace your old amalgam silver fillings, composite resin fillings is a pleasing option.
In the hands of skilful dental professionals and a reputable dental practice in Melbourne, you can be sure that the materials used are of the highest quality and be confident that the dental work will be virtually discreet. In addition, composite resins are also great for eliminating tooth discolouration or defects, which makes your smile even more pleasant and attractive.
The biggest advantage of composite resin fillings is aesthetics. Your dentist can adjust the shade of the resin material to match the colour of your teeth and make it virtually unnoticeable. Thus, your newly filled tooth will look great.
Composite resin fillings preserve the original structure of the tooth. Amalgam fillings require drilling away large portions of healthy biological tooth to shape a cavity to hold them securely. Composite fillings, on the other hand, are bonded to the tooth using powerful adhesives and can be applied with lesser alteration to the original tooth. Thus, it doesn’t need a lot of reshaping of the tooth to install the fillings.
It strengthens and improved the shape of the tooth. White fillings generally strengthen the tooth structure and can be shaped to enhance or replicate the shape of the tooth that needs to be filled.
Unlike silver filling, composite resin fillings contain no mercury, which eliminates the need to use mercury and other heavy metals for amalgam fillings. Another biggest advantage of white filling is that they cost less. This type of restorative and cosmetic dental treatment is sometimes an affordable alternative to replacing tooth with dental crown.
