What Are Tooth-Colored Fillings?

Tooth-colored fillings, or composite fillings, are made from a durable, resin-based material that can be closely matched to the color of your child’s natural teeth. Unlike traditional silver (amalgam) fillings, tooth-colored fillings provide a more aesthetic and discreet solution for treating cavities.

Why Choose Tooth-Colored Fillings for Your Child?

  • Natural Appearance: These fillings blend in with the surrounding tooth, making them virtually invisible. This is especially important for visible teeth, ensuring your child’s smile looks as natural as possible.
  • Strong and Durable: Composite fillings bond directly to the tooth, providing strong support and protection against further decay.
  • Mercury-Free: Unlike amalgam fillings, which contain mercury, tooth-colored fillings are a safer, metal-free option for your child's dental care.
  • Preserves More of the Natural Tooth: Composite fillings require less removal of the tooth’s natural structure than amalgam fillings, helping maintain the tooth’s strength and integrity.

The Filling Procedure: What to Expect

The process of placing a tooth-colored filling is simple and comfortable, and we make sure your child feels at ease throughout the procedure:



  • Numbing the Area: To ensure your child’s comfort, we will first numb the affected area.
  • Removing the Decay: One of our qualified dentists will carefully remove the decayed portion of the tooth, leaving behind a clean and healthy surface.
  • Placing the Filling: The composite resin is applied to the prepared tooth in layers. Each layer is hardened using a special curing light.
  • Shaping and Polishing: Once the filling is in place, the dentist will shape it to match the natural contours of the tooth and then polish it to a smooth finish, ensuring a comfortable bite and a beautiful appearance.

Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings for Kids

  • Enhanced Confidence: Since the fillings are nearly indistinguishable from natural teeth, your child can smile confidently without worrying about visible dental work.
  • Long-Lasting Protection: Tooth-colored fillings are durable and resistant to wear, providing long-lasting protection for your child’s teeth.
  • Quick and Efficient: The procedure is typically completed in just one visit, making it convenient for busy families.

Maintaining Your Child’s Fillings

After the procedure, maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial to ensure the longevity of the fillings. Encourage your child to brush twice daily, floss daily, and maintain regular dental check-ups at Starbrite Dental. Our qualified team will monitor the condition of the fillings and make any necessary adjustments to keep your child’s smile in top shape.
