Tooth-coloured dental fillings
If you have decay or cracks in your teeth, it’s important to stop problems in their tracks with a dental filling. At Orthosmile, we offer tooth-coloured fillings to provide an aesthetically pleasing finish for your smile.

What are dental fillings used for?
Tooth-coloured dental fillings are used to restore cavities in a way that blends in beautifully with your smile. We can also use dental fillings to prevent dental decay and restore the strength of damaged teeth.

How do tooth-coloured fillings work?
Receiving a tooth-coloured filling is quick and simple. We will first numb your tooth and remove any decayed tooth tissue. Once the site is clean, we can apply tooth-coloured composite material layer by layer, and harden it with a curing light.
Once your tooth-coloured filling is complete, we will contour it to feel natural and comfortable in your mouth. Last, but not least, we will polish the filling so that it doesn’t affect your bite in any way.
Benefits of tooth-coloured fillings
Tooth-coloured composite resin fillings are wonderful because they are durable and can be customised to match the natural shade of your tooth. They are long-lasting and give your smile a completely natural appearance after treatment.

Who can benefit from tooth-coloured fillings?
Composite resin fillings may be right for you if you suffer from:
- Mild to moderate tooth decay
- Mild chips, cracks or wear and tear (especially in your front teeth)
- Restorations or fillings that need replacement
For more extensive decay, we can recommend other cosmetic treatments, such as inlays, onlays or dental crowns.

How to take care of dental fillings
If you want your tooth-coloured filling to last as long as possible, you should brush your teeth twice a day and floss daily. You should also follow up with your dentist for routine cleanings, and try to avoid sugary or hard foods that could damage your teeth.
