Natural Looking and Long-Lasting Restorations
Tooth coloured fillings (composite restorations) help repair cavities, chips and fractures while blending seamlessly with your natural teeth.
At Dental Hub Ghatkopar East, we focus on minimally invasive, aesthetic and durable solutions that restore function without compromising the appearance of your smile.
Both Dr. Gaurav Shah and Dr. Kosha Shah are skilled in conservative dentistry and use modern techniques to preserve maximum healthy tooth structure while ensuring optimal strength and longevity.
What Are Tooth Coloured Fillings?
Tooth coloured fillings are resin-based materials that bond directly to the tooth. They are an excellent alternative to older metal fillings, offering a natural finish and strong protection.
These restorations rebuild the tooth’s shape, function and appearance while supporting the surrounding tooth structure.
When Do You Need Tooth Coloured Fillings?
You may need a filling if you experience:
- Cavities or tooth decay
- Sensitivity to sweets, hot or cold foods
- Visible pits, holes or dark spots on the tooth
- Chipped, cracked or worn teeth
- Replacement of old metal fillings for better aesthetics
Early detection allows smaller, simpler fillings that help preserve maximum natural tooth structure.
Types of Tooth Coloured Fillings We Provide
1. Composite Resin Fillings
Ideal for small to moderate cavities. They offer excellent aesthetics and strong bonding to the tooth.
2. Composite Build-Ups for Fractured Teeth
Used to restore broken edges, cracks and worn enamel while maintaining natural shape and translucency.
3. Replacement of Old Silver (Amalgam) Fillings
For patients seeking a more aesthetic and conservative alternative to metal fillings.
Our Tooth Coloured Filling Procedure
Step 1: Examination & Diagnosis
Digital X-rays and clinical assessment help identify decay and determine the appropriate filling type.
Step 2: Gentle Removal of Decay
Only the decayed portion is removed using minimally invasive techniques, preserving healthy enamel and dentin.
Step 3: Layer-by-Layer Filling Placement
Composite material is placed in layers and shaped to match natural tooth contours.
Step 4: Curing with Special Light
Each layer is hardened using a curing light to ensure strength and stability.
Step 5: Polishing & Finishing
The restoration is polished to achieve a smooth surface, natural shine and proper bite alignment.
