Preservation of Tooth Structure: Composite fillings require less removal of healthy tooth structure compared to traditional amalgam fillings, preserving more of your natural tooth.
Bonding Capabilities: Composite fillings chemically bond to the tooth structure, providing additional support and helping to strengthen the remaining tooth.
Versatility: Composite fillings can be used to treat a wide range of dental issues, including cavities, chipped or cracked teeth, and even to close gaps between teeth (diastema closure).
Reduced Sensitivity: Unlike metal fillings, composite fillings do not expand or contract with temperature changes, resulting in reduced sensitivity to hot or cold stimuli.
