Cavities are one of the most common dental conditions recorded. Although proper dental hygiene is a great way to prevent cavities, a few factors like genetics and age come into play. Fillings are a popular choice for correcting cavities and preventing further deterioration of a tooth. White fillings in particular are a preferred choice for some, and for good reason. Made out of composite dental resin, white dental fillings blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, giving you a beautiful smile. They are safe, comfortable, and long-lasting solutions for people suffering from cavities. This type of filling can also be used on patients with a broken tooth to restore the tooth’s shape.
