Resin Composite Dental Fillings

Resin composite tooth / dental fillings are the most common restoration placed in dentistry. Resin Composite dental fillings consist of a plastic liquid which contains microscopic glass particles. Resin composite tooth fillings are used to:

• replace tooth structure lost due to decay
• close gaps between teeth
• mask or change the color of the teeth
• replace old, failing or unsightly amalgam (metal) tooth fillings
• repair chipped teeth or broken tooth fillings fillings

Resin composite fillings can be used safely, effectively and aesthetically in both back and front teeth. Using this material our dentists can provide you with tooth fillings which are both durable and beautiful. With proper oral hygiene, a good diet and your regular dental check-ups, resin composite fillings should last for many years.
