When you need a filling, Dr. Khandwala will use a durable, tooth-colored filling in the tooth which needs it. This type of filling will never darken as metal fillings will. When you smile or laugh, your entire smile will remain white.
An additional benefit of these fillings is that they do not require as much drilling as older metal fillings did. This filling material bonds tightly to your tooth tissue. Metal fillings don't bond well. Therefore, your dentist would remove more enamel to secure the metal filling in the tooth.
Dental technology has provided us with an aesthetic, durable, long-lasting filling material that can last many years with regular dental care.
