Tooth-colored fillings are fillings that are meant to replace and mimic the natural white color of the teeth. Tooth-colored fillings, also called white fillings, are also often used to cosmetically change the color and shape of teeth. Common uses of tooth-colored filling include fixing chipped teeth and filling the gaps between crooked teeth.

What Are the Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings?

Tooth-colored fillings have many benefits over non-tooth colored fillings. Here are just a few of them:

  • They provide a more natural and clean fix than non tooth-colored fillings. They match the color and appearance of natural teeth.
  • Tooth-colored fillings also chemically bond to teeth, so they do not need grooves or pins as some fillings require.
  • They can be used to fix frontal teeth while maintaining an aesthetically-pleasing smile.
  • They can restore the tooth’s natural strength and durability.
  • They take less time to set and dry.
  • They can be repaired easily.

How Are Tooth-Colored Fillings Set?

Most tooth-colored fillings are made from a composite resin material. This material contains fiber particles encased by an acrylic matrix. The filling is placed in the correct spot, shaped, and hardened. Resin chemically binds to the teeth by binding into the pore of the underlying dentin. After shaping the mass, a special white light is used to cure and harden the substance. Once set, the dentist will check your bite to make sure the resin is bonded properly. They will then adjust the filling as needed by polishing.

Are There Disadvantages to Tooth-Colored Fillings?

  • Tooth-colored fillings can become discolored from coffee and tea
  • Exposure to alcohol can cause them to wear and degrade
