Fillings are used to replace a portion of your tooth which has been lost either due to dental decay or damage. Composites are made from synthetic resins mixed with silica particles creating a tooth coloured filling material which can be placed into a tooth and hardened using a special light restoring the tooth's original colour, form and function. These composite fillings are very technique sensitive, and so at Malden Dental Care we ensure that we use high quality materials and the most meticulous placement methods to ensure long term success.
