Aesthetic Dental Fillings Antalya, Turkey (Metal-Free White Fillings)
A dental cavity (decay) is the most common dental problem worldwide. The solution is a dental filling. This procedure removes decay and fills the space. It restores the tooth’s original shape, strength, and function.
At our clinic in Antalya, we have moved beyond old, grey amalgam (metal) fillings. We only use modern, tooth-colored composite resin for results that are strong and virtually invisible.
What Are White Composite Fillings?
Composite fillings are made from a tooth-coloured, biocompatible resin material. They are the aesthetic and modern choice for treating cavities. Unlike silver amalgam fillings, they bond directly to the tooth. This gives extra support and removes less healthy tooth structure.
The Benefits of White Composite Fillings
- Aesthetically Superior: The resin can be perfectly colour-matched to your natural teeth, making the filling completely unnoticeable.
- Metal-Free & Mercury-Free: These fillings are biocompatible and safe. They are a good choice for patients worried about mercury in old amalgam fillings.
- Conservative Preparation: Composite bonds to the tooth. Our dentists only remove the decayed portion. This preserves more of your natural, healthy tooth.
- Durable: Modern composite materials are strong, durable, and can last for many years with proper care.
Replacing Old Metal Fillings
Do you have old, dark, or failing silver fillings? Many of our patients in Antalya choose to remove old amalgam fillings safely. They replace them with new, aesthetic white composite fillings. This single, simple procedure can instantly improve the look of your smile and eliminate the dark, "metal-mouth" appearance.
The Filling Procedure in Antalya
Getting a dental filling is a fast and simple one-visit procedure.
- Numbing: The area is numbed using local anaesthesia for a completely pain-free experience.
- Decay Removal: Our dentist gently removes all of the decayed tooth structure.
- Filling & Bonding: The composite material is applied in layers and shaped to match your tooth. It is then hardened (“cured”) right away with a special blue UV light.
