straightforward and stress-free procedures
Fillings are common practice these days and nothing to be afraid of. Used to correct the hole in your teeth caused by decay, there are two kinds of filling available – Amalgam and Composite. Amalgam is a mixture with various metals and the most common type of filling. Because of it’s metallic colouration and hard wearing properties, amalgam is typically used in the less visible areas of your back teeth. Whereas white / composite fillings are generally recommended in more noticeable areas, namely to match the colouration of your front teeth.
Amalgam Fillings
Effective and affordable solutions
The conventional choice is the amalgam filling made up of metals such as silver, tin and copper or elemental mercury. Amalgam is an effective and affordable way of filling tooth cavities, correcting tooth structure damage and restoring the normal / effective functions of a tooth. If cared for, amalgam fillings can be long lasting and reliable and especially suited for permanent, less noticeable back teeth areas that are subject to high wear and tear.
Benefits of Amalgam Fillings
- Amalgam is very hard wearing, lasting for many years.
- Quicker procedure times compare to composite fillings.
- Less expensive than other methods.

Composite Fillings
For a natural looking appearance
White / Composite fillings have become very popular as they offer a more natural and discrete appearance. Made from a mixture of powdered glass, silica and ceramic particles combined to a resin base, composite fillings can be colour matched to your teeth for an invisible finish.
Benefits of White / Composite Fillings
- Moulded and bonded to your tooth, which means less drilling.
- Natural looking appearance.
- Can easily be repaired, added to or replaced.
