Cosmetic Filling FAQs

How long do cosmetic fillings last?

Composite fillings typically last 7-10 years, while ceramic fillings can last 15+ years. Longevity depends on oral hygiene, biting forces, and regular dental checkups. We warranty our fillings for 3 years against defects.

Are tooth-colored fillings as strong as metal?

Modern composite resins are nearly as strong as amalgam for most situations. For large cavities in back teeth, we may recommend ceramic inlays/onlays which are actually stronger than metal fillings.

Can cosmetic fillings be used for front teeth?

Yes! Composite resin is ideal for front teeth fillings because it can be perfectly color-matched and shaped to blend invisibly with your natural tooth structure.

Do cosmetic fillings stain?

High-quality composites resist staining well, but may gradually discolor over years from coffee, tea, or smoking. Ceramic fillings are completely stain-resistant. We can polish or replace stained fillings if needed.

Can old metal fillings be replaced with cosmetic ones?

Absolutely. We safely remove old amalgam fillings and replace them with natural-looking alternatives. This is popular for visible teeth when metal fillings show when laughing or talking.
