Mercury-free composite fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Cavities are one of the most common dental problems, but with tooth-coloured composite resin fillings, treating them is easier and more aesthetically pleasing than ever. Unlike old silver amalgam fillings, composite fillings match the natural colour of your tooth and bond directly to its structure.
At Eastdale Family Dental, we use only mercury-free composite materials β safer, more attractive, and designed to last. Whether you have new decay or want to replace old metal fillings, we restore your smile discreetly.
We identify the extent of decay and determine the best approach for treatment.
The area is numbed so you feel comfortable and pain-free throughout.
The decayed portion of the tooth is carefully removed, leaving only healthy structure.
We select a composite resin shade that precisely matches your natural tooth colour.
The composite is placed in layers, shaped to restore your tooth's natural form, and hardened with a curing light.
The filling is polished to a smooth finish and your bite is adjusted for perfect comfort.
With good oral hygiene and regular checkups, composite fillings typically last 7β10 years or more.
No β we match the shade precisely to your tooth. Most people cannot tell you have a filling at all.
We use local anaesthetic so you won't feel pain during the procedure. Some mild sensitivity is normal for a few days after.
With composite fillings, you can eat as soon as the anaesthetic wears off β typically within 1β2 hours. Avoid very hard or sticky foods for the first day.
