What are the advantages of white fillings?

Not only do white fillings fit seamlessly into your smile, but they’re strong and durable, too. While they won’t last forever, they can last several years with proper care, and best of all, others likely won’t notice you have them at all. We can also carry out our treatment within a day, and offer porcelain material for those larger fillings.

What happens if I don’t get a filling when needed?

Our private dentists recommend white fillings where decay has caused a cavity in the tooth. If left untreated, it’s possible you could develop an infection, or require the tooth extracting in the future. We will never recommend a treatment you don’t need and take our commitment to care very seriously.

What causes cavities?

Tooth decay – which stems from poor dental health and hygiene, as well as poor diet and lack of professional care. You could help prevent a cavity from forming by ensuring you brush twice daily for two minutes a time, flossing as well as brushing, and avoiding too many sugary or acidic foods and drinks in your diet.
