Best for Teeth
Composite is a beautiful material that can support and strengthen weakened teeth and allow them to stay healthy for many years.
We believe fillings should be as close to invisible as possible!
A filling is, very simply, a piece of material that replaces a damaged or missing part of a tooth and is applied directly to the tooth.
The damage to the tooth can be caused by bacteria (decay), or by wear and tear.
The fillings we use at The Modern Dentist are made from a material called Composite Resin, which is made up of filler particles (like glass beads) suspended in a resin matrix.
Advances in Composite technology mean that now fillings can be made to look and function exactly like teeth for many years.
With bonding technology, Composite fillings can actually strengthen and support damaged teeth.
This usually comes down to the skill of the dentist carrying out the filling, but also the choice of materials and bonding techniques used.
At The Modern Dentist, we try to make our fillings look so invisible that even another dentist wouldn't spot them!

Good fillings won't be noticeable or turn ugly over time.
If you've been having sensitivity or discomfort from a tooth because of wear, decay or a crack, a well-bonded Composite filling will often make the symptoms disappear.
