The Beauty and Benefits of Cosmetic Dental Fillings

Perfect for all Services

When you are in need of a filling you might not be thinking about the appearance of your smile if it is not your front teeth needing the work. But you have to keep in mind that speaking, laughing and yawning exposes a lot more than your front pearly whites and it can be distracting and unattractive to have dark amalgam fillings no matter where they are in your mouth. Cosmetic dental fillings allow you to have a perfectly attractive, well aligned mouth filled with invisible fillings for an even and attractive mouth inside and out.

Decay Resistant Surface

The beauty of tooth colored fillings is that they provide a far safer surface for your teeth. Cosmetic dental fillings are more resistant to decay as their surface is far smoother than old fashioned amalgam fillings. This means there is less chance of food and bacteria becoming lodged in a filling which can lead to further decay and far worse dental conditions such as abscesses. Cosmetic dental fillings are composed of a material that not only matches the color of your teeth, but the strength of your tooth enamel.

Replace Amalgam with Tooth Colored Fillings

Because amalgam fillings are usually older not to mention unsightly, you can elect to have them replaced with cosmetic dental fillings. This will benefit you in three ways:

1. Having older fillings replaced will allow your dentist to discover any further decay below the surface of the amalgam filling and remove it.
2. Having tooth colored fillings will offer a more even, attractive look to your mouth and smile.
3. Tooth colored fillings offer a smoother surface to help discourage decay.

Perfect Match

When it comes to tooth colored fillings it is not just that they are whiter, they actually match your exact tooth color for texture, color and translucency. They offer a perfect cosmetic dental filling designed for both appearance and durability.
