Composite “Tooth-Colored” Fillings
Composite resin fillings, or tooth-colored fillings, provide good durability and resistance to fracture in small to mid-size fillings that need to withstand moderate pressure from the constant stress of chewing. Composite fillings are used to restore decayed teeth. They are a good choice for people who prefer that their fillings look more natural. Composite or tooth-colored fillings do not contain mercury or any metal.
