Composite fillings, also called tooth-coloured fillings, are used to repair cavities, cracks, and other minor tooth damage. At Key Dental Clinic we use the latest techniques and materials to place tooth-coloured fillings and we’ll have them match the natural colour of your teeth, providing a seamless and aesthetically pleasing repair.
What Do Tooth-Coloured Fillings Help With?

- Cracks and Chips – Composite fillings repair minor cracks and chips, restoring the tooth’s structure and function.
- Aesthetic Improvements – These fillings can replace old, unattractive metal fillings, enhancing the appearance of your smile.
Benefits of Tooth-coloured Fillings
- Aesthetic Appeal – The fillings blend in perfectly with your natural teeth, making them virtually invisible.
- Durability – Composite fillings adhere directly to the tooth, providing strength and stability.
- Versatility – They are ideal for both front and back tooth restorations, offering a versatile solution for various dental issues.
- Minimally Invasive – This procedure retains more of your natural tooth structure than traditional metal fillings.
- Quick and Efficient – The treatment can typically be completed in one visit.
Composite Fillings Procedure
- Initial Examination – During your dental examination, Dr. Alavian inspects the condition of your teeth and determines if a tooth-coloured filling is the right solution for you.
- Anesthesia – To ensure your comfort, a local anesthetic is applied to numb the area around the affected tooth.
- Decay Removal – Dr. Alavian removes the decayed or compromised part of the tooth and cleans the area meticulously to ready it for the filling.
- Filling Application – Layers of composite resin are applied and cured individually using a specialized light.
- Shaping and Polishing – After inserting the filling, the dentist adjusts its shape to match the natural contours of your tooth and then polishes it to achieve a smooth, natural look.
- Final Check – The dentist ensures your bite feels comfortable and makes any necessary adjustments.
