What are Composite Fillings?

Composite fillings are sometimes called white fillings. In contrast to traditional silver amalgam fillings, composite fillings are made of tooth-colored dental composite. These fillings are comparable in strength and durability to amalgam fillings but contain no metal and blend in nicely with the surrounding tooth. A composite filling is a much more esthetic restoration than an amalgam filling.

How Long Do Composite Fillings Last?

A composite filling typically lasts for many years, but the exact lifespan depends on factors like your oral hygiene and dietary habits.
