Tooth Fillings are a very common treatment for patients of all ages who have cavities in their teeth. They are used to seal the hole (cavity), and protect and restore the tooth’s shape. Tooth coloured fillings are regular dental fillings made from composite resin. They are known as tooth coloured because of their colour which can be matched to the colour of your teeth.

If you are anxious or feel any sort of discomfort during your appointment, sedation options are available to help you feel more at ease during the treatment.
In Australia, tooth-colored fillings made from composite resin are the most common choice by dentists. Silver fillings made from amalgam were widely used in the past, however, they are not preferable today as their appearance is less discrete and the metal contains mercury which may be harmful to people with certain health conditions.
