From our Chalfont St Peter practice, we can use white composite fillings at both the front and back of the mouth to restore the function and strength of damaged teeth or build up chips and restore shape. The shade is matched to the original tooth’s colour, meaning repairs are invisible.

In addition to their aesthetic advantages, composite fillings are versatile. They let us carry out minimally invasive restorations that involve saving as much of your natural tooth as possible and can even be used to treat receding gums. White fillings are an effective choice for treating severely damaged teeth and can be used as an alternative to more invasive crowns. As the white filling liquid bonds directly to the tooth, we can use composite fillings on any surface.

When you visit us for white fillings, we start your treatment by removing damaged parts of the tooth. A protective rubber sheet known as a dental ‘dam’ is then used to isolate the tooth, preventing contamination of the filling during treatment and controlling moisture. After a bonding agent is applied, your dentist expertly layers composite resin onto the tooth, sculpting it expertly to recreate the natural shape. With a normal regime of regular check-ups and careful hygiene, you can expect your white filling to last as long as a natural tooth.
