A composite filling is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore decayed teeth. Composites are also used for cosmetic improvements of the smile by fixing any discoloration or reshaping any disfigured teeth.
Composite fillings are tooth-colored fillings, also known as composite resins. These are used to fill cavities in your teeth. They are made from a mixture of plastic and glass and are durable, stain-resistant, and look natural.
Composite fillings match the natural color of your teeth and can be closely matched to the rest of your teeth making the filling much less noticeable than a metal filling.
