Tooth-Colored Restorations By Dr. Barrera
Tooth-colored
fillings are made from durable plastics called composite resins. Similar
in color and texture to natural teeth, the fillings are less noticeable,
and much more attractive than other types of fillings. In addition,
tooth-colored fillings are compatible with dental sealants. A tooth can
be filled and sealed at the same time to prevent further decay, but just
remember that tooth-colored fillings are not for every tooth, they work
best in small restorations and low-stress areas. For example, your
pediatric dentist may not recommend a tooth-colored filling for a large
cavity or for the chewing surface of a back tooth. Also, tooth-colored
fillings may cost a bit more than silver fillings because they take
longer to place.
