Cavity Fillings
Restore Strength. Preserve Your Natural Tooth.
Cavities and tooth damage don’t always require extensive treatment — when addressed early, they can be restored seamlessly and conservatively.
At Experteeth, we focus on aesthetic, long-lasting restorations that not only repair the tooth but also blend naturally with your smile.
Curios About Tooth-Coloured Fillings?
What Are Tooth-Coloured Fillings?
Tooth-coloured fillings are used to repair cavities, minor fractures, or worn areas of a tooth.
They restore the tooth’s structure, strength, and function while matching its natural colour — making the restoration virtually invisible.
For larger areas of damage, we also offer ceramic inlays and onlays, which are more durable, precisely crafted restorations designed to replace lost tooth structure.
What are inlays and onlays?
Inlays and onlays are custom-made ceramic restorations used when a simple filling is not sufficient. They fit precisely into or over the damaged portion of the tooth, providing superior strength and longevity.
Why Choose Modern Tooth-Coloured Fillings?
Today’s fillings are designed to be both functional and aesthetic.
Will my filling be visible?
No. Tooth-coloured materials are matched to your natural shade, making the restoration blend seamlessly with your tooth.
Are fillings permanent?
Yes. With proper care, modern fillings and ceramic restorations are long-lasting and designed to function as a permanent solution for treated areas
When do I need an inlay or onlay instead of a filling?
How Do Fillings Work?
- The decayed or damaged portion of the tooth is removed
- The area is cleaned and prepared
- A tooth-coloured material is placed or a custom restoration is designed
- The restoration is shaped and polished for a natural finish
Is the procedure painful?
No. The procedure is comfortable and performed under local anaesthesia when required.
