White fillings, also known as composite fillings, are used to repair the structure and appearance of teeth that have experienced decay. At King East Dental in Stoney Creek, we've helped countless patients protect their smiles with white fillings and we'd be happy to do the same for you!

What are white fillings made from?

Constructed from a combination of glass, quartz, and other materials, white fillings are easy to shape and match to your natural tooth shade. They also quickly adhere to teeth, providing strength and durability while delivering a natural-looking finish.

What benefits do white fillings offer?

In addition to helping to strengthen teeth while preserving their appearance, this material also helps maintain your speaking and smiling confidence. Composite fillings are also less sensitive to temperature than other types of fillings, and they bond directly to natural enamel for greater strength and protection.

Is anyone a candidate for these fillings?

Most people with small- to mid-sized fillings will benefit from white fillings.  Rest assured that our dentist will assess your unique smile and provide a treatment recommendation to best accommodate your needs.
