Composite resins are tooth colored restorations that are practically invisible. A composite filling is done in one appointment. They duplicate the natural appearance of a tooth in restoring decayed teeth or repairing a defect.
Tooth colored fillings are an excellent alternative to the traditional metal fillings and they do not contain any mercury. These filling materials can be used to create a more aesthetic smile.
Composite fillings restore the natural appearance of the tooth. Composites require less removal of tooth structure, especially with new cavities. The size of the filling can be dramatically smaller with composites.
