Tooth-Colored Fillings

When a cavity needs filling, we use tooth-colored composite that bonds to your tooth, matches its shade and lets us remove less healthy enamel than old metal fillings required.

Conservative, comfortable, invisible

Composite resin is shaded to match your tooth, shaped by hand and hardened in place, so the repair disappears into your smile. Because it bonds directly to enamel, we can keep more of your natural tooth. We also replace worn or failing metal fillings with composite when it's the right call, and tell you when it isn't.

Why patients choose Tender Dental Care for tooth-colored fillings

  • Mercury-free materials
  • Shade-matched to your tooth
  • Preserves more natural tooth structure
  • Usually completed in one visit
  • Gentle numbing (tell us if you're nervous)

Frequently asked questions

Not automatically. Sound metal fillings can last for decades. We replace them when they crack, leak or you'd prefer a natural look.

Typically 7–10 years or more with good home care and regular check-ups.
