White Fillings
If you’ve discovered a cavity in your teeth, a filling may be necessary. Cavities are the result of tooth decay, which is generally caused by a buildup of plaque and tartar. It’s crucial to maintain good oral hygiene to stave off tooth decay and preserve your natural dentition where possible. If you develop a cavity, East Grinstead Smiles offers white fillings to combat tooth decay and fill up the gap without drawing attention to the hole.
WHY CHOOSE A WHITE FILLING?
White fillings are a modern method of combatting tooth decay that is generally preferred over traditional fillings due to their subtle nature. The fillings are matched to the natural shade of your teeth, which makes them virtually invisible whilst also making your smile look brighter.
DO THEY HAVE ANY OTHER BENEFITS?
On top of covering up the gap, white fillings will also protect the surrounding tooth structure from further decay. Your dentist will seal the joins to the base of your teeth with a bonding material, creating a solid foundation. This will massively benefit your overall dental and oral health in the long run.
DO YOU OFFER OTHER TYPES OF FILLINGS?
Before you commence treatment, your dentist will discuss your viable options so that you can make an informed decision. If you decide not to proceed with porcelain fillings, we also provide other filling materials, including amalgam fillings and onlays. Get in touch with East Grinstead Smiles to find out all the ways we can help you fill your cavities and prevent further tooth decay.
