Aesthetic fillings

Aesthetic (white) composite fillings are the ideal solution if you want to achieve completely natural-looking teeth after damage.

They are used in cases where extensive restoration of dental tissue is not required, and are made in the office during a single visit.

Description of the procedure

Aesthetic fillings, also known as white fillings, restore and mimic the natural appearance of teeth.

What are the advantages of aesthetic fillings (white fillings)?

  • They approximately correspond to the natural color and appearance of the teeth
  • They micromechanically bond to the tooth structure, which is why they do not require the insertion of slots, grooves, and wedges into the healthy tooth structure.
  • Completely hardens within a few seconds
  • Can be used on all tooth surfaces without affecting aesthetics
  • They can be repaired if damaged
  • Any tooth sensitivity is minimal and short-lived.

Candidates

  • Caries repair

    The most common reason for fillings is tooth decay – a bacterial infection that damages tooth tissue. After the decay is removed, a filling is used to replace the lost part of the tooth to maintain its function and prevent further decay.

  • Fracture or break of a tooth

    In the case of minor cracks, broken pieces, or damage to the tooth crown due to trauma (e.g., a blow, biting hard objects), a filling can restore the lost shape and strengthen the tooth structure.

  • Correction of tooth color and shape

    Aesthetic fillings are also used on healthy teeth that have irregularities in color, size, or shape. Composite materials can be used to aesthetically shape teeth for a more harmonious smile, often as an alternative to veneers or aesthetic prosthetics.

  • Tooth wear

    In cases of excessive tooth wear due to bruxism (teeth grinding) or erosion, fillings can restore the tooth surface and prevent further damage.

  • Replacement of old, worn-out fillings

    Old amalgam or damaged fillings can be replaced with modern composite materials that offer better aesthetics, strength, and functionality.

Preparation

At the beginning of the procedure, it is important to prepare the tooth, that is, remove the hard tooth tissue affected by caries. After that, the tooth is cleaned with a mild acid that opens the pores in the enamel and dentin.

Placing white fillings does not always require anesthesia of the area being repaired. Area anesthesia is often necessary if the problem is in the tooth beneath the enamel, or in the dentin surrounding the tooth nerve.

Procedure progress

White fillings are micromechanically bonded to the teeth.

After removing the caries, a mild acid is applied to the tooth, which cleans and opens the pores in the enamel and dentin.

After that, a bond is applied, which serves as a link between the tooth tissue and the filling material.

The bond is hardened with the help of a polymerization lamp, and the composite material is applied and shaped on it in layers.

Once the filling has hardened, the bite is checked, followed by final polishing of the filling.

Recovery

After the filling is made, mild pain or increased tooth sensitivity may occur as a symptom.

Sensitivity is individual and actually depends on the depth of the caries that was treated and stops after a few days.

Precautions

For the longevity of fillings, it is important to maintain oral hygiene, as well as avoid hard and sticky foods that can cause composite fillings to crack.

When it comes to choosing the best material for you and your teeth, consulting with a dentist is key.

The aesthetics, cost and durability of dental filling materials vary from situation to situation.

When recommending a specific filling material, the dentist takes into account the current condition of your teeth, the amount of tissue that needs to be compensated, the place where the tooth is located and the forces (chewing) that act on the tooth during function.

Frequently asked questions

1. What is a dental filling?

A dental filling is a material used to restore a damaged part of a tooth after caries removal. It restores the shape and function of the tooth and prevents further decay.

2. When is it necessary to place a filling?

A filling is placed when a tooth is damaged by decay, minor cracks, abrasions, or after the removal of old, worn-out fillings. The goal is to preserve the structure and functionality of the tooth.

3. Does it hurt to have a filling placed?

The procedure itself is painless because it is performed under local anesthesia. Most patients feel only slight pressure or vibration during the procedure.

4. What types of fillings are there?

Composite (white) fillings are most commonly used, as they blend aesthetically with the tooth. Amalgam (gray) fillings are less commonly used due to their less aesthetic appearance. In some cases, ceramic or glass ionomer fillings are also used.

5. How long does a filling last?

Durability depends on the type of material, size of the filling, hygiene and habits of the patient. Composite fillings last an average of 5 to 10 years, but with good care they can last longer.
