Each tooth-colored filling material offers its own advantages depending on your needs and
treatment goals.
Composite resins
Composite resin fillings are designed to closely match the natural shade of your teeth, allowing
for a seamless, natural-looking result. They are commonly used for small to moderate cavities
and provide a strong, reliable restoration.
Amalgam fillings
Amalgam fillings are typically made from a combination of metals, including a powder alloy made from silver, tin, copper, and liquid mercury. These types of fillings are the most cost-effective, but they’re also the most visible.
Porcelain
Porcelain fillings are custom-made and bonded to the tooth for a precise fit and natural
appearance. They are highly durable and resistant to staining, making them a great option for
long-term aesthetic restorations.
