At Ivi Z. Sanguinetti DDS,PA, we offer our patients an option for filling their cavities with white fillings. White fillings are comprised of composite resin and make a great alternative to the traditional amalgam fillings, which are silver in color. White fillings are made to match the shade of the natural tooth so there is that cosmetic benefit. They can also be used for other uses, like filling in gaps between teeth and covering discoloration.
Benefits of getting white fillings include the following:
- The tooth has restored strength due to the quality composite resin that is affixed and bonded to the tooth.
- The fillings can be made any color, so they match the exact shade of the natural tooth.
- White fillings are free of mercury, therefore the safest and healthiest filing option for cavities.
- Less of the natural tooth is removed during the process of completing a white filling.
