Looking to replace silver fillings with natural alternatives?

White fillings designed to blend effortlessly with your smile

Old silver fillings can stand out and affect the overall appearance of your teeth. White fillings offer a discreet alternative, matched to your natural enamel for a smooth, even finish that feels more like your own tooth.

Many patients choose to combine white fillings with other treatments such as cosmetic dentistry or teeth whitening to further enhance their smile.

What are white fillings made from?

Enamel-matched materials designed for strength and comfort

White fillings are created using a modern composite resin that is shaded to match your natural tooth colour. The material is applied in layers and hardened with a special curing light, helping achieve a strong and durable restoration.

This approach allows more of your natural tooth to be preserved compared to traditional metal fillings. With good oral care, white fillings typically last around 8–12 years. They are mercury-free, help reduce sensitivity, and can also be used to improve the shape of chipped or uneven teeth.

Common questions about white fillings

Your white filling frequently asked questions answered

Are white fillings safe?

Yes. White fillings are mercury-free and widely used as a natural alternative to metal fillings.

How long do white fillings last?

With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, white fillings commonly last between 8 and 12 years.

Do white fillings stain over time?

They are resistant to staining, and routine hygiene visits help keep them looking their best.

Can old metal fillings be replaced?

Yes. Many patients choose to replace silver fillings with tooth-coloured alternatives for a more natural appearance.

Do white fillings cost more than metal fillings?

They can be slightly higher in cost due to the materials and precision involved. Our dental fees page or our team can provide tailored guidance.

Will my white filling be noticeable?

No. White fillings are matched to your natural enamel, allowing them to blend in seamlessly.

What are white fillings and how can they improve the appearance of my teeth?

If you require a filling in your tooth, a cosmetic option would be to choose a white filling material that matches the shade of your surrounding natural teeth. You can also have any existing metallic fillings replaced with tooth-coloured or “white” fillings. This will allow you to smile without a metallic glint in sight, giving your teeth a more natural appearance overall.

How do white fillings work and what are the benefits?

This is a safe procedure that entails the removal of any decay from your tooth, and taking out the metal or amalgam fillings if you are having them replaced. The new filling is made from a very hard tooth-coloured substance and will withstand the forces in your mouth when you bite and chew over a long period of time.

The restoration is completed in one visit and your fillings will not be visible when you smile. White fillings provide a natural-looking restoration, improve the cosmetic appearance of filled teeth while still allowing you to bite and chew as usual, and offer a hard-wearing restorative solution.

I had a really positive experience at Apex Dental Surgery. Dr Shervin and hygienist Rosie were extremely kind, gentle, and took the time to explain everything clearly, which made me feel very comfortable. The receptionists are also lovely - always welcoming, calm, and helpful from the moment I arrived, which set the tone for the whole visit. The practice is clean, professional, and very well run. I felt genuinely looked after and specifically asked if I could continue my treatment with this team because of how at ease they made me feel. Highly recommend.

Ali has been my dentist for three years now and has been by far the best I’ve ever had! He has a great bedside manner, good sense of humor and talks you through everything he is doing . He is so thorough, I have every confidence in him. Totally puts my mind at ease and makes going to the dentist a somewhat nice experience .Thank you Ali

Dr Ali Almosoy is the best! Was dreading having a root canal and he was so careful and reassuring, I did not feel anything during or after! The surgery are all so kind, caring and supportive. Would definitely recommend.
