White Fillings

Cavities are a common dental concern, but the good news is that tooth-colored White Fillings offer an attractive and durable solution. At Dental Innovations in Perrysburg, we specialize in composite resin fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, restoring strength and beauty without the need for outdated silver amalgam fillings.

White fillings, also known as composite fillings, are made from a durable, tooth-colored resin that bonds directly to your natural tooth structure. This strong, mercury-free alternative not only provides a more natural appearance but also helps preserve more of your healthy tooth enamel compared to traditional metal fillings.

If you have old, dark silver (amalgam) fillings, you may feel self-conscious about your smile due to their dark, metallic appearance. You may even experience concerns about their durability over time.

BENEFITS OF WHITE FILLINGS

Natural-Looking & Aesthetic Appeal

Unlike silver fillings, which are highly visible, white fillings blend seamlessly with the natural color of your teeth. This makes them an ideal choice for both front and back teeth, ensuring a confident, natural-looking smile.

Mercury-Free & Biocompatible

Traditional silver fillings may contain mercury, which some patients prefer to avoid. White fillings are made from composite resin, a safe, non-toxic material that eliminates any concerns about mercury exposure.

Preserves More of Your Natural Tooth

With silver fillings, more of your healthy tooth structure must be removed to accommodate the filling. White fillings require less drilling, allowing your dentist to preserve more of your natural tooth, leading to a stronger, healthier restoration.

Stronger Bonding for Long-Term Durability

White fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, creating a tight seal that prevents bacteria from entering and causing further decay. This also reinforces the tooth’s strength, reducing the risk of cracks or fractures over time.

Less Sensitivity to Temperature Changes

Silver fillings can expand and contract with temperature changes, which may lead to tooth fractures, gaps that allow bacteria to enter, or sensitivity. White fillings are more stable, helping to prevent sensitivity and long-term damage.

Quick & Comfortable Procedure

Getting a white filling in Perrysburg is a simple, painless process that can typically be completed in a single visit. Our skilled dentists at Dental Innovations ensure that your procedure is quick, effective, and minimally invasive.

Can Replace Old Silver Fillings

If you have old silver fillings that are worn out, discolored, or causing discomfort, we can safely replace them with white composite fillings for a more aesthetically pleasing and healthier alternative.
