Tooth colored fillings (composites) are a more natural look than traditional silver fillings (amalgams).The tooth colored material is cured by a special light, shaped, and then polished to match your teeth.
Composites also have several other advantages. Composites are bonded which requires less of the existing healthy tooth to be removed. This makes the resulting filling smaller than a normal amalgam filling.
Composites look and feel more natural and blend extremely well making them perfect for front teeth, chipped or broken teeth, closing in gaps, decayed teeth or even worn teeth.
Composites are also environmentally friendly because they do not use mercury,
