Composite Filling
A composite filling is a tooth-colored restoration used to repair teeth affected by cavities, cracks, or minor damage. Unlike traditional silver (amalgam) fillings, composite fillings are made from a durable resin material that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing both strength and aesthetics. At Sani Dental Group, we use the latest materials and techniques to ensure long-lasting, natural-looking results.

Who Needs This Procedure?
You may benefit from a composite filling if you have:

• Cavities caused by tooth decay.

• Chipped or cracked teeth.

• Worn-down teeth from grinding (bruxism).

• Small gaps that need cosmetic improvement.

• Old, unattractive fillings that need replacement.

What to Expect During the Procedure

• Local anesthesia is applied to ensure comfort.

• The dentist removes the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth.

• The composite resin is applied in layers, shaped, and hardened with a special curing light.

• The filling is polished to match the natural look and feel of your teeth.

• Benefits

  • Matches the natural color of your teeth for an invisible repair.

  • Strengthens the tooth structure and restores functionality.

  • Quick, safe, and minimally invasive procedure.

  • Versatile solution for both front and back teeth.

Recovery & Aftercare

• You can resume eating and drinking shortly after the procedure.

• Mild sensitivity to hot or cold foods may occur for a few days but usually fades quickly.

• Brush and floss regularly to keep the filling and surrounding tooth healthy.

• With proper care, composite fillings can last 7–10 years or more.
