White fillings provide an effective solution for teeth that have been weakened by decay or minor damage. Using advanced composite resin, we can restore your tooth’s strength while preserving its appearance. Each filling is carefully colour-matched to your existing shade.
The treatment itself is comfortable and straightforward. After gently numbing the area, we remove any damaged tissue and thoroughly clean the tooth. The composite material is then applied in small layers, shaped to fit your bite and polished to a smooth finish.
During your appointment, we take the time to understand your concerns and examine the overall health of the tooth. If a white filling is the most suitable treatment, we will talk you through each step so you feel fully informed and at ease.
And restoring smiles with composite white fillings Our before-and-after results highlight the incredible transformation achieved by Dr Rohan Saigal and his team.
