Composite “White” Fillings

White Restorations or "White Fillings" are the resin bonded composite materials that we use for back teeth. In one visit, the composite is carefully bonded to your teeth to replace decay rather than the dark silver/mercury dental amalgam. These bonded white restorations conserve more tooth and renew some of the tooth's lost strength thus making them more resistant to future fracturing. The end result is fewer crowns or root canals for our patients.
