Tooth-Colored Fillings for Patients in Wilmington, NC
Tooth-colored fillings, also called composite fillings, are crafted from a blend of durable resin materials that closely mimic the natural color of your teeth. These fillings are an excellent choice for restoring teeth affected by decay or minor damage. At Stephanie G. Hackney DDS PA, we offer these top-quality fillings for all qualified patients at our dental office in the Wilmington, North Carolina, area.
Advantages of Tooth-Colored Fillings
Some of the benefits of tooth-colored fillings include:
- Natural Appearance: The main advantage of tooth-colored fillings is their ability to match the color and texture of your natural teeth. This ensures a seamless and natural-looking smile.
- Mercury-Free: Unlike traditional silver amalgam fillings, tooth-colored fillings are mercury-free, offering a safer and more biocompatible alternative.
- Conservative Restoration: Tooth-colored fillings require less removal of healthy tooth structure compared to metal fillings, preserving more of your natural tooth.
- Versatility: In addition to filling cavities, tooth-colored fillings can be used for cosmetic purposes, such as repairing chips, cracks, or closing small gaps between teeth.
