White Fillings
Made from biocompatible composite resin, white fillings are the durable, attractive alternative to metal amalgams. Dr. Marzvaan fills cavities with white fillings and can replace old metal dental work with white fillings, as well.
Because metal is a temperature conductor, it expands and contracts when it encounters hot and cold. This can cause cracks where bacteria will hide and eat away at a tooth. Non-metal fillings aren't temperature sensitive, and because we blend them to match your tooth shade, non-metal fillings look completely natural.
The benefits of non-metal fillings include:
- Stronger tooth-filling bonds
- Not temperature sensitive
- Aesthetically pleasing
- Can last up to 10 years
White fillings are great for children and adults. With modern dental technology like DIAGNOdent laser cavity detection, we can find small cavities and fill them before they turn into larger problems. White fillings will improve your oral health and your smile's appearance.
