Dental Fillings in Penrith
About White Fillings
White fillings, commonly known as composite fillings, are a popular option for restoring teeth affected by decay or damage. A filling replaces the part of the tooth that has been lost due to cavities or breakage.
Unlike traditional metal amalgam fillings, white fillings are made from a tooth-coloured composite material composed of glass particles suspended in a resin matrix. This material is available in several shades to perfectly match your natural tooth colour, making the filling virtually invisible.
Benefits of Composite Fillings
Composite fillings offer several advantages over traditional amalgam fillings:
- Aesthetically pleasing, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth
- Bonded directly to your tooth structure, providing additional support
- Versatile for various cosmetic dental procedures, such as repairing chips, closing gaps, and reshaping teeth
