Metal-free Fillings
When you smile or speak, do you reveal a mouth full of silver fillings? Metal fillings can be unattractive, but the composite fillings look like your natural teeth and are much more aesthetic.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are metal-free fillings made of?
Metal-free fillings are usually made from a durable composite resin material that is shade-matched to your tooth.
Are metal-free fillings better than silver fillings?
Metal-free fillings are definitely a better choice in many ways, especially because they look aesthetic. They are also a great choice for those who have metal allergies or sensitivities.
Does it hurt getting a filling?
Treatment is usually very comfortable. Your tooth will be numbed with local anesthetic during the procedure, so there is little to no pain.
How long does it take to get a filling?
Metal-free fillings at our Cypress office take about 30 to 60 minutes. For multiple fillings, we may schedule more than one appointment.
Do metal-free fillings stain?
Composite fillings can stain over time, and unlike natural enamel, they don’t respond to whitening treatments. To keep them looking their best, limit staining foods and drinks like coffee, red wine, and berries, and keep up with regular cleanings.
