Composite Fillings

The days of metal-only fillings are behind us.

At Q Dental, we offer modern, tooth-coloured fillings that provide a natural-looking way to treat dental decay while restoring the appearance of your smile at the same time.

Natural-looking, mercury-free restorations

White fillings are used to treat dental decay (a condition that damages and breaks down tooth structure), as well as to repair minor tooth damage caused by wear or injury. They can be carefully placed within the chewing surfaces of teeth and used to rebuild affected areas where structure has been lost.

At Q Dental, your dentist will ensure that all decay is thoroughly removed, giving you confidence that your tooth is healthy, stabilised, and restored in a way that blends seamlessly with your natural smile.

Why our patients choose white fillings

• They look completely natural: White fillings are made from advanced dental composite resin, carefully matched to the shade of your natural teeth. Once placed, they blend so well that it becomes virtually impossible to distinguish between the filling and your natural tooth structure.
• They are mercury-free: Unlike traditional amalgam fillings, white fillings do not contain mercury. At Q Dental, we understand the importance many patients place on biocompatible and modern materials, and we fully support the choice of mercury-free restorative options.
• A durable, long-term solution: With good oral hygiene and regular dental care, white fillings can last for 10 years or more. They offer a reliable and aesthetic solution that not only restores function and appearance but also helps protect your teeth and reduce the need for more complex treatment in the future.
