White Fillings

White fillings, also known as composite fillings, are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to traditional silver amalgam fillings. Not only do white fillings blend seamlessly with the natural colour of teeth, but they are also mercury-free and require less removal of healthy tooth structure. Moreover, white fillings are more durable than ever before and can last for many years with proper care. With these advantages, it’s no wonder that more individuals are choosing white fillings to improve the appearance and health of their teeth.

Here at Huntly dental practice we offer affordable and quality white (composite resin) fillings that help you keep smiling with confidence. On the NHS, white fillings are not available for molar and premolar teeth when the filling is on the chewing or biting surface. If you would prefer a white filling in these areas, we are happy to provide this treatment on an independent basis. The cost ranges from £78.50 to £108.50, depending on the size of the filling.

The cost of your treatment will always be discussed with you before it begins. You will also receive a written treatment plan with a clear estimate, so you know exactly what to expect before any treatment takes place. There are no hidden costs or surprises.

White filling materials available today are long lasting and are comparable with amalgam fillings. The life expectancy of the filling depends on where it is in your mouth and how heavily you bite together. Your dentist can advise you on how long your fillings should last.

White fillings make your teeth look natural and don’t compromise your smile. They also offer a good solution for minor cracks, chips, tooth discolouration, or to replace amalgam fillings with tooth coloured fillings.
