Composite fillings are a mixture of glass or quartz filler in a resin medium
that a produces a tooth-colored filling. They are sometimes referred to as
composite or filled resins. Composite fillings provide good durability and
resistance to fracture in small-to-midsize restorations that need to withstand
moderate chewing pressure. Less tooth structure is removed when
prepares the tooth, and this may result in a smaller filling than that of an
amalgam. Composites can also be "bonded" or adhesively held in a cavity,
often allowing to make a more conservative repair to the tooth.
The cost is moderate an depends on the size of the filling and the technique
used to place it in the prepared tooth. Composite fillings require a cavity
that can be kept clean and dry during filling and they are subject to staining
and discoloration over time.
Cause less of your natural tooth structure to be removed when being
placed.
Look Great!
