Tooth Fillings

At Grace Dental Care, we make dental fillings feel like no big deal. Whether it’s a small cavity, a worn filling, or minor trauma to a tooth, we offer white, mercury-free fillings that blend in beautifully and last for years. If you're experiencing tooth sensitivity or think you may have a cavity, book your visit with our friendly Everton Park dental team today.

What Is a Tooth Filling? 

A filling is a simple and effective way to repair a tooth that has:

  • A cavity from decay
  • Minor cracks or wear
  • Small trauma or damage

We gently remove the damaged area, clean and prepare the space, and then restore the tooth using a durable, tooth-coloured material that matches your natural enamel. It’s quick, effective - and usually done in a single visit.

Signs You Might Need a Filling

You may not always see a cavity forming, but your mouth could be sending you signals like:

  • Sharp or dull tooth pain
  • Sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods
  • Dark spots or rough patches on a tooth
  • Pain when biting or chewing
  • Food getting stuck in the same spot repeatedly

Regular check-ups help us catch these early - often before you feel anything at all.

Benefits of Tooth-Coloured Fillings

Tooth-coloured fillings can offer many benefits.

Natural Appearance

Fillings can blend seamlessly with your existing teeth for a discreet, aesthetic result.

Strong Bonding

Fillings can adhere directly to the tooth structure, providing durable support and stability.

Preserves Tooth

Fillings can requires less removal of healthy tooth material compared to traditional fillings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not at all. Our composite and ceramic fillings are colour-matched to your teeth for a seamless result.
 

The area will be numbed completely - most people say they felt nothing at all.

Composite fillings can last 5–10 years, and ceramic inlays often much longer.

Only if they’re damaged or leaking. If you have older silver (amalgam) fillings you’d like to replace for cosmetic or health reasons, we can help you do that safely.

Fillings That Blend In: Why Tooth-Coloured Beats Silver Every Time

Gone are the days when fillings had to be noticeable metal patches. Today, tooth-coloured fillings are the go-to choice for both function and aesthetics — and at Grace Dental Care, we’re big fans.

Here’s why swapping silver for a natural look isn’t just about appearances — it’s about long-term dental health too.

What Are Tooth-Coloured Fillings?
