About the treatment
Stop decay, keep the tooth natural
White fillings are made of composite, a mouldable resin that follows the contours of your tooth. Less drilling is needed than for a metal filling, and the result is natural-looking.
They repair teeth damaged by decay, and also cracked, broken or worn teeth. They can replace old metal fillings to brighten a “shadowed” smile.

- Less drillingComposite bonds to the tooth, so less healthy tooth is removed.
- About 30 minutesMost fillings are done in a single, short appointment.

Questions
Before you book
Anything else on your mind? Ask Dr. Doaa at your consultation, or write to us.
Why do I need a filling if it does not hurt?
Decay can spread a long way before you feel it. Filling the cavity early stops it spreading, avoids pain and saves the tooth.
Can you replace my old metal fillings?
Yes. White fillings can replace old amalgam fillings for a more natural look.
Are there alternatives to a filling?
Depending on the damage, veneers, crowns, implants or bridges may suit better. Dr. Doaa will advise on the best option for your tooth.
