Tooth-colored fillings, also known as composite resins, give excellent stability and resistance to the tooth. They can be applied on either back or front sides of the teeth or both sides. This treatment could be the best choice for people who prefer their fillings to look more natural. The tooth-colored filling is also used for corrective enhancements of the smile.

Tooth colored fillings take longer because it is necessary to keep the tooth clean and dry while the cavity is being filled. This treatment is now more often applied than gold fillings (amalgam).

For this procedure, your dentist will clean up the damaged tooth and then place a bonding material within the cavity. Each of the layers that have composite resin will harden with the help of the light that your dentist operates over the tooth. When the last layer of the filling becomes firm, the dentist will shape the mixture to make it look like a natural part of your tooth.
