Also known as composite or white fillings, these are the latest technology for restoring a tooth.
White fillings use a strong composite bond that binds to your teeth, resulting in a strong but natural looking restoration which can be colour matched to your teeth. They provide a long-term strength without the risk of fracturing the tooth, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing tooth, free from mercury and less susceptible to hot and cold sensitivities.
Tooth-coloured fillings have been used in front teeth for cosmetic reasons for many years. Recent improvements have made tooth-coloured fillings more affordable and they are often used as an alternative to dental amalgam. However, tooth-coloured fillings may not always be suitable. For example, this material may not be the best choice for a large filling in a back tooth.
Dental amalgam can be used for filling molars (back teeth) that get a lot of wear and tear. Amalgam is made up of a mixture of metals, usually including silver, tin, copper, zinc and mercury.
Some countries have been trying to phase out the use of amalgam fillings for environmental reasons. Although mercury occurs naturally in the environment, incorrect disposal of dental amalgam can add to mercury levels in the environment that build up in the food chain.
