What do you mean by a “conservative” alternative?

Conservative dental treatment aims to retain as much healthy, natural tooth structure as possible. Because of the way composite material is placed, minimal tooth alteration is required. Preserving more of the natural tooth not only results in a more lifelike restoration but also enhances the strength of the filling. The composite bonds securely to the remaining structure, contributing to long-term durability and supporting a lifetime of healthy, confident smiles.

What is composite resin?

Dental composite is typically composed of a resin matrix combined with finely ground fillers such as silica. This material can be precisely shade-matched to the surrounding tooth structure, allowing for a seamless blend. Its aesthetic quality ensures it remains virtually invisible when smiling, as it closely mimics natural enamel. Additionally, composite resin offers a conservative alternative to traditional options like metal amalgam.

Why would I need a composite filling?

Composite fillings are not used solely for treating cavities or filling the space left by decay. They are also suitable for restoring teeth weakened by other forms of trauma, such as minor fractures or surface cracks. In such cases, the filling helps restore both the strength and the natural form and appearance of the damaged tooth.
