Overview
About tooth-coloured fillings at The Dent Architect
Tooth-coloured fillings use composite resin matched to your natural tooth shade, making them a discreet choice for cavities on both front and back teeth. They bond directly to the tooth, which can mean less drilling than older silver fillings in some cases. At The Dent Architect, we assess each cavity individually — recommending a filling when it is sufficient, and advising a crown when the tooth needs more protection. Prevention guidance is part of every visit so you can reduce future decay.

Questions
Answers before you book
Straight talk from a specialist clinic — so you can decide with clarity, not pressure.
Do white fillings last as long as silver ones?
Modern composites perform well in the right situations, especially for small to moderate cavities. Size, bite force, and oral hygiene affect longevity. For very large cavities or heavy chewing areas, a crown may last longer — we recommend the better option for each tooth.
Can I replace all my silver fillings with white ones?
Replacement is considered when an old filling is failing, cracked, or causing concern — not simply for appearance. Removing a sound amalgam filling can weaken the tooth unnecessarily. We assess each filling individually and advise accordingly.
Will the filling match my tooth colour?
We select a composite shade that blends with your surrounding tooth. For front teeth, aesthetics receive extra attention. Over time, composite can stain slightly, but polishing at check-ups helps maintain appearance.
