Cosmetic Mt Gravatt East Dental Fillings
Rather than using traditional metal fillings, our Mt Gravatt East family dentists implement restorative techniques that enhance both the health and appearance of your smile.
The fillings in our office are made of long-lasting materials that adhere directly to your tooth’s surface, requiring less-invasive methods of placement. Each one is available in a variety of colours, so that it isn’t noticeable should anyone ever the area that was treated. They can even be placed on teeth toward the front of your mouth, as they blend in with your smile.
Types of Fillings Offered
Our practice uses two different types of tooth-coloured fillings, depending on the specific needs and location of your tooth.
Glass Ionomer Fillings — A resin-like filling made up of microscopic glass particles that bond directly with your tooth structure. Read more>>
White Fillings — Durable and aesthetic, composite fillings are made to match the tooth being treated. Read more>>
