Composite Restoration
Composite Restoration or Filling is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore decayed/carious teeth. Composites are also used for cosmetic improvements of the smile by changing the color of the teeth or reshaping disfigured teeth.
Visit Shreya Hospital Dental Department available in Ghaziabad for composite filling services.
Dental composites can be used for:
- Filling cavity of carious/decayed teeth.
- Filling cavity preparations.
- Filling gaps (Diastema) between teeth.
- Minor reshaping of teeth.
- Partial crowns on single teeth.
Advantages of Composite Restoration
- Composite filling can be closely matched to the color of existing teeth.
- Composite micro-mechanically bonds to tooth structure. This strengthens the tooth’s structure and restores its original physical integrity.
- Less healthy tooth needs to be removed for a composite filling procedure.
- Less-costly and more conservative alternative to Dental Crowns.
- Composite fillings can be used to repair chipped, broken or worn teeth.
- Minor damage to a composite filling can be repaired by adding additional composite.
- Reduced mercury exposure for both patient and dentist.
- Composite Restoration does not corrode.
