Amalgam Filling Limerick County

Tooth Coloured filling material is called composite. They are similar in colour and texture to natural teeth. A "Direct" Composite filling is a tooth colored filling that is done in a single office visit. It is most appropriate for small restorations. The composite material is bonded to the tooth structure allowing conservation of as much natural tooth structure as possible. Direct Composite fillings are not for every tooth. They work best in small restorations and low-stress areas. Therefore they are not always suitable to fill large cavities at the back of the mouth. They are also more costly than silver fillings because they take longer to place. Research has shown that they do not last as long as other restorations.
