Composite fillings
Composite fillings are tooth-colored fillings used to fill cavities and cover minor cracks on teeth. In certain cases, they can be used to change the shape and color of teeth as well. They are extensively being used by dentists for various procedures nowadays and have replaced metal (amalgam) fillings.
Are composite fillings better than amalgam fillings?
How are composite fillings placed?
Composite fillings can be applied just like traditional fillings. The tooth is prepared before the filling is placed. For this, it is thoroughly cleaned and the decay will be removed from the cavity. To ensure maximum comfort during the procedure, the tooth and the surrounding region would be numbed using local anaesthesia.
The composite will be applied to the cavity in several layers. Since the filling material used is photovoltaic, a curing light will be used to harden it. Before it is hardened, it will be meticulously shaped according the contour of the tooth. Finally, it will be polished and made to match the color and texture of the tooth.
