Is cosmetic dental filling the best option for you?

Cosmetic dental filling is a procedure in which the dentist will use tooth-colored composite resin material to attach to the chipped, cracked or discolored area of ​​the tooth.

The composite resin material is activated by a special light to firmly bond to the tooth (in need of treatment) to restore or improve your smile.

This procedure is often used to close gaps in the front teeth because it is quick, convenient and more economical than porcelain veneers.

Cosmetic fillings are best suited for

Closing small gaps between teeth

Repairing chipped or cracked teeth

Increasing the length of teeth

Stained or discoloured teeth that do not respond to whitening agents

Minor cosmetic changes to teeth that involve temporary correction of cosmetic defects or repair of teeth in areas with very low biting pressure (e.g. front teeth)

The cosmetic dental filling process is performed as follows:

1/ Make an appointment and consult with the dentist:

You will have a physical examination of your mouth. The dentist will assess the condition and advise specifically on what to do with that tooth area.

During the consultation, your individual needs will be received and the dentist will balance to meet your wishes to the maximum.

Usually, the cosmetic dental filling process will be performed within 1 visit, unless there are too many teeth that need to be treated, the dentist will divide it into multiple appointments.

2/ Choose the new tooth color

The dentist will choose the composite color that best matches the color of your teeth.

Shape and harden the material with a specialized light.

Will continue to shape and polish until it matches your other teeth.

How to care for your teeth after cosmetic dental fillings?

1/Adjustments after the procedure

After the procedure, your teeth will feel different. Therefore, it may take some time for you to get used to this new feeling.

This may result in slight changes in your voice, but this is completely normal. These symptoms and feelings will gradually subside after a few days.

2/Proper oral hygiene

To maintain a good bond, it is important to incorporate good oral care habits. For example:

  • Brush your teeth at least twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush
  • Avoid frequent mouthwashes containing alcohol
  • Avoid drinking coffee, tea or smoking to avoid staining.
  • Avoid biting your nails
  • Avoid eating hard foods
  • Visit your dentist every 6 months for a thorough cleaning
  • If the resin is broken or chipped, consult your dentist for repairs.
