A tooth-colored restoration uses composite resin or ceramic materials that match your natural tooth shade to repair cavities, fractures, or worn enamel.

Unlike silver amalgam fillings that stand out when you smile or laugh, tooth-colored restorations blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Think of it as an invisible repair that restores your tooth’s strength and appearance without the tell-tale signs of traditional metal fillings. These modern materials bond directly to your tooth structure, making them stronger and more conservative than older alternatives.
