White fillings

The material we use is synthetic based on nanotechnology micro fillers to improve the aesthetics and final look and strength of the filling.
All-white fillings are lined and sealed to increase longevity.

White fillings can be used to replace amalgam fillings, to provide single veneers, cosmetic contouring (improve the shape) of a tooth, to cover exposed root surfaces, and to aid in the treatment of cracked teeth.

White fillings are bonded to your tooth and typically last three to five years before they need repair.

Your dentist may advise you on an inlay/onlay if stronger and tooth coloured it acts where support is necessary for the posterior part of your mouth; particularly if you grind your teeth (Bruxism).

Removal of Amalgam Fillings

Amalgam consists of various metals, one of which is known to be toxic- Mercury.

The removal of these old fillings can produce aerosols of mercury. At Longwood House, we have ensured safe removal and disposal.
