Restore Your Smile with Natural-Looking White Fillings

At Evolve Dentistry, our white (composite) fillings blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Made from a tooth-coloured resin, they’re both discreet and strong—ideal for repairing decay, small chips, or old metal fillings.

Why Choose White Fillings?

  • Aesthetic – completely inconspicuous as they match your natural tooth shade.
  • Mercury-free – no more traditional silver amalgam.
  • Conservative – bond to your tooth, requiring less removal of healthy structure.
  • Durable – long-lasting when cared for, ideal for front or back teeth.

Our White Filling Process

  • Consultation & removal – any decay or damaged material is gently removed under local anaesthetic.
  • Shaping & bonding – tooth is etched, bonding applied, then composite layered.
  • Finishing – material is hardened under a visible blus light and polished for smooth, natural feel.

FAQs – White Fillings

  1. What are white fillings made of?

A strong resin composite matched to your tooth colour.

  1. How long do they last?

Typically 5–10 years, often longer with excellent oral care.

  1. Do they contain mercury?

No—they’re fully mercury-free.

  1. Can existing amalgam be replaced?

Yes—many patients swap to white fillings for aesthetic or health reasons.

  1. Is the procedure painful?

We use local anaesthetic to make it entirely comfortable.

  1. How are they cared for?

Brush twice daily, floss regularly and attend dental reviews.

  1. Do they stain?

Composite can stain over time; regular polishing helps maintain appearance. However, at Evolve, because we aim to place all our composite resins under rubber dam, this reduces the staining. 

  1. What if they chip or fall out?

Small repairs are straightforward; larger issues may require replacement.

  1. Can white fillings be used on back teeth (molars)?

Yes, modern composite materials are strong enough for use on back teeth, providing both durability and a natural appearance when you smile or talk.

📣 An important update from Dr Carol Somerville Roberts

In this video, Carol shares some personal news about reducing her clinical days from early 2026, following advice from her consultant. While this means she’ll be seeing fewer patients day-to-day, Carol will still be very much involved in Evolve Dentistry, continuing to provide treatments such as amalgam removal and cosmetic dentistry, and ensuring we deliver the highest standards of care.

We’re also thrilled to share that Carol will be taking on the role of President of the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry this November 👏 — a fantastic recognition of her expertise and dedication to dentistry.

For many patients, your care will now be with Dr Richard Ford, Carol’s long-standing colleague and friend. Richard shares the same commitment to excellence and patient care that Evolve is known for, and we know you’ll be in excellent hands.

Thank you, as always, for your trust and support. 💙
