Wonderful White Fillings in the Heart of Liverpool

Nothing makes you look and feel better than a bright white smile, and we are delighted to provide white fillings to restore decayed teeth with minimal impact to your beautiful smile. Whether you would like to replace existing metal fillings, or you need a new filling, we can help!

About white fillings

White fillings are very popular now because they look much better than amalgam fillings, which can easily be seen when you smile or open your mouth. White fillings are created from dental composite, which contains resins, and is available in a range of white shades. We use the closest shade to your natural tooth colour to ensure that it is impossible to tell the difference between the filling and the rest of the tooth.

Fillings are commonly used to treat cavities (holes that form in the tooth surface). This helps to prevent the spread of infection through the tooth and also strengthens the tooth to protect it from injury in the future.

What are the benefits of white fillings over amalgam fillings?

White fillings have obvious aesthetic benefits, as they don’t affect the look of your smile, but they are also environmentally friendly and safe. Modern materials are more durable than ever and most teeth can now be filled with dental composite.

The procedure

The filling procedure is simple, quick and painless. Before the filling is placed, we will numb the tooth to prevent you from feeling pain and we will then clean the cavity and clear it of decayed tissue. Once bonding material has been placed in the cavity, we will then insert the composite and mould it (at this stage the composite is in putty form) to fill the cavity and then set it to harden it using a curing light. Once the filling is hard, any final adjustments will be made and then you’ll be free to go home.
