What is dental composite?

What is dental composite?

Dental composite is a tooth-coloured material that is used to fill cavities and restore damaged teeth. It is made up of a resin matrix that is reinforced with tiny ceramic particles. Dental composite is a popular choice for fillings because it is strong, durable, and aesthetically pleasing.

Benefits of dental composite fillings

There are many benefits to choosing dental composite fillings, including:

  • Tooth-coloured: Dental composite fillings are tooth-coloured, so they are less noticeable than metal fillings.
  • Strong and durable: Dental composite fillings are strong and durable, so they can last for many years.
  • Aesthetically pleasing: Dental composite fillings can be matched to the colour of your teeth, so they are aesthetically pleasing.
  • Less invasive: Dental composite fillings are less invasive than metal fillings, so they can help to preserve more of your natural tooth structure.

Dental composite filling procedure

The dental composite filling procedure is relatively simple. First, your dentist will remove any decayed or damaged tissue from your tooth. Then, they will prepare the tooth for the filling by shaping it. Next, they will apply a bonding agent to the tooth, which will help the filling to adhere to the tooth structure. Finally, they will apply the dental composite filling in layers and cure it with a special light.

Aftercare for dental composite fillings

After you have had a dental composite filling placed, it is important to take good care of your teeth. Brush your teeth twice a day and floss once a day. You should also avoid eating hard or sticky foods. If you have any questions or concerns about your dental composite filling, please talk to your dentist.

If you’ve never visited Evolve before, here’s a little look around.

We know that walking into a new dental practice can feel daunting, particularly if it’s been a while since your last appointment.

We’ve designed Evolve to feel calm, welcoming and a little different from what you might expect from a dental practice.

But the most important part isn’t the building. It’s how you’re made to feel when you’re here.

Come in, make yourself comfortable in our patient lounge and let us look after you.

Gum disease can be surprisingly easy to overlook.

Bleeding when you brush, red or swollen gums, persistent bad breath or gums that seem to be receding are all things worth paying attention to.

The important thing is not to wait until something hurts. Gum disease can develop without causing pain, which is one reason regular dental and hygiene appointments matter.

In this short video, Yasmin explains some of the signs to look out for.

If you’ve noticed a change in your gums, mention it at your next appointment or get in touch with the team.

Ever run your tongue over your teeth and wonder why they suddenly feel rough?

There are a few possible reasons, from plaque build-up to changes in the surface of a tooth.

In this short video, Yasmin explains some of the common causes and when it’s worth mentioning it to your dentist.

Noticing small changes in your mouth is useful. You don’t need to diagnose them yourself, but do tell us if something feels different.
