Dentistry in Libertyville

What are Tooth-Colored Fillings?

Do you have one or more teeth that require fillings? Modern dentistry offers tooth-colored fillings made from composite materials that closely match the natural color of your teeth.

These fillings are effective and aesthetically pleasing, ensuring that your smile remains beautiful and natural-looking.

Composite Fillings

Most people will need a filling at some point in their lives to restore damaged teeth or treat cavities and tooth decay. While silver fillings were once the norm, composite fillings are now the preferred choice.
Made from a blend of materials, composite fillings can be color-matched to your teeth, making them blend seamlessly with your smile. Additionally, they can be used to alter the shape, size, and color of teeth for restoration purposes.

Why Do Teeth Need to Be Filled?

Teeth may need fillings for various reasons, the most common being tooth decay.
When decay occurs, small fissures or cavities can form on the tooth’s surface. If left untreated, these areas are exposed to bacteria, leading to further deterioration.
Sealing the cavity with a filling protects the tooth from more decay and restores its strength, making it more resistant to fractures and breaks.

Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings

Tooth-colored fillings offer numerous benefits over traditional filling types:

Rapid Hardening

They harden in seconds, not minutes.

Restored Strength

They help restore up to 95% of the tooth’s original strength.

Minimal Pain

They cause very little or no pain and sensitivity.

Aesthetic Appeal

They blend visually with the surrounding teeth.

Chemical Bonding

They are chemically bonded to the teeth, eliminating the need for pins,
grooves, or slots in healthy teeth.

Not only do they effectively treat damaged teeth, but they also enhance the tooth’s strength and appearance. Composite fillings are quicker to apply and maintain the natural look of your teeth.
