What are composite fillings?

When there is cavity or a piece of broken tooth, composite fillings are needed. composite fillings are used as restorative material which comes in many different shades of white color in order to match the existing natural tooth color. The dentist will shape the filling to replace the missing or damaged portion of the tooth allowing for a natural looking smile to the human eye. Whiting fillings are usually done in one visit.

The way composite fillings stick to teeth structure is very innovative. Three steps are required to successfully stick the white filling to the tooth. First, conditioning the tooth surface to accept the bond. Then applying the bond to the conditioned surface. Finally, applying the white filling to the bonded surface. Just like that, your natural smile will glow.
