Fillings nobody will ever notice
Modern composite fillings are matched to the exact shade of your enamel, bond directly to the tooth, and contain no metal — so your repair disappears into your smile.
Strong, subtle, and mercury-free
A cavity doesn't have to leave a mark. Tooth-coloured composite resin lets us remove decay, rebuild the tooth's natural contours, and blend the repair so precisely that even you may forget which tooth it was.
Because composite bonds chemically to enamel, we can be far more conservative than with old silver amalgam — preserving more of your healthy tooth structure. The material cures instantly under light, so you leave with a fully hardened, ready-to-use tooth the same day.

Benefits at a glance
Invisible repair
Composite is layered and sculpted to mimic natural enamel, then polished to the same lustre.
Sealed against decay
The bonded margin hugs the tooth tightly, helping keep new bacteria out of the repaired area.
Quick and comfortable
Most fillings take under an hour, with profound numbing and plenty of breaks if you want them.
What to expect
We numb the area thoroughly — and check it's working before anything else happens.
Only the decayed portion is removed, keeping the healthy tooth around it intact.
Composite is placed in thin layers, shaped to your bite, and light-cured on the spot.
We fine-tune your bite and polish the surface until it feels like it was always there.
Questions, answered
Should I replace my old silver fillings?+
Not automatically. If an amalgam filling is intact and sealed, it can stay. We recommend replacement when a filling is cracked, leaking, or when you'd simply prefer a natural look — and we'll tell you honestly which applies.
How long do composite fillings last?+
With good home care, typically 7–12 years and often longer. Regular checkups let us monitor the edges and refresh a filling before problems develop underneath.
Will my tooth be sensitive afterwards?+
Mild temperature sensitivity for a few days is normal and fades on its own. Anything sharp or lasting isn't — call us and we'll adjust it promptly, at no charge.
