Everyone wants to have those perfect sets of teeth which celebrities and commercial models have. Unfortunately, having them can seem pretty hard – most especially if you have tooth decays that have accumulated over the years, or if you have broken teeth. However, with the latest improvement in dental cosmetics, having perfect looking set of teeth is not impossible anymore.
Tooth decay and broken tooth are among the most common dental problems. And when the tooth can still be saved – tooth restoration is the ideal dental treatment.
Dental Filling is a form of dental restoration where a composite resin or a metal amalgam is placed onto the decayed or broken tooth. However, through the years, the use of metal filling like silver amalgam has been replaced by tooth colored filling.
Tooth colored filling or composite resin is made of plastic and composite materials that are bonded to the tooth structure. The composite resin is then matched to the natural color of the tooth – thereby resulting to the restoration being unnoticeable.
