What are bonded composite fillings?
Bonded composite fillings are made from materials that are similar in colour to your natural tooth. They can be used as new fillings for cavities, or to replace old fillings that might need to be removed. The composite material is made from glass-filled particles in a resin matrix and has a putty-like consistency prior to curing.
Why bonded composite fillings?
Composite resin, the material used to make the fillings, comes in a variety of shades. We will customize your treatment to create a filling that suits smile. The material is also strong and durable, yet easily manipulated to help repair resurface your tooth's structure.
