What are White (Composite) Fillings?
Modern tooth-coloured restorations
White fillings, also known as composite fillings, are made from a durable resin material that is colour-matched to your natural teeth. Unlike traditional metal amalgam, composite fillings bond directly to enamel, allowing us to preserve more healthy tooth structure.
For patients seeking white fillings from a private dentist in London, composites offer a combination of strength, aesthetics, and safety that makes them the preferred modern option.
Why Choose White Fillings?
More than just aesthetics – better for your teeth. Modern composite fillings provide multiple advantages over traditional metal fillings.
Natural-Looking Results
Each filling is carefully shade-matched to your enamel, making it almost invisible when you smile or speak.
100% Mercury-Free
Composite fillings contain no metal, mercury, or amalgam, making them safer for patients and better for the environment.
Preserve More Natural Tooth
Because composites bond directly to the tooth, less healthy enamel needs to be removed during treatment.
Strong & Long-Lasting
Today's composites are engineered to withstand biting forces, even on back teeth. With good care, many last 10+ years.
Same-Day Treatment
Most white fillings take 30–45 minutes, allowing you to walk in with decay and leave with a restored tooth the same day.
Replace Old Metal Fillings
Many patients choose to replace visible silver fillings with white fillings to improve confidence and smile aesthetics.
What to Expect: The White Filling Process
From start to finish in around 30–45 minutes. Getting a white filling at our London clinic is straightforward and comfortable. If you have a painful cavity or lost filling, you can request an emergency dental appointment for same-day treatment.
Gentle Numbing
We apply topical anaesthetic before the local anaesthetic injection to minimise discomfort. Most patients feel very little sensation.
Careful Decay Removal
Only the damaged tooth structure is removed, preserving as much healthy enamel as possible.
Bond & Build
The composite resin is applied in thin layers and cured with UV light, creating a strong bond to your natural tooth.
Shape & Polish
The filling is shaped to match your bite and polished to a smooth, natural finish. Many patients forget which tooth was treated.

| Tooth Removal | Minimal – bonds to enamel | More tooth removal needed |
| Strength | Strong in most clinical cases | Very strong but non-bonding |
| Thermal Sensitivity | Less thermo-conductive | More sensitive to heat/cold |
