Treatments

If the decay is not too serious, our cosmetic dentist will remove all the decay and restore the tooth with a white (tooth coloured) filling.

Our dentists can safely replace silver amalgam fillings with white tooth coloured fillings.

Dental decay happens when the enamel and dentine of a tooth become softened by acid attack, producing a cavity (hole).

More about decay detection in our Preventive Dentistry section.

If there is a lack of tooth structure to support a filling a better alternative is porcelain inlays/onlays.

These are custom made PORCELAIN RESTORATIONS made by a skilful technician to precisely fit into the cavity.

Advantages:

• More conservative.
• Little tooth structure is removed compared to a crown.
• Strong and durable.
• Cosmetic and natural looking.
