What are the Types of Dental Fillings?
Dental fillings come in several materials, each offering unique benefits based on your needs.
Gold Fillings
Gold fillings are highly durable and can last 15 years or longer. Though more expensive, they are gentle on gums and resistant to wear.
Amalgam Fillings
Amalgam fillings are a cost-effective option. They’re strong and long-lasting but more visible than other materials, making them less ideal for front teeth.
Composite Resin Fillings
Tooth-colored composite fillings are popular for front teeth because they match your natural smile. These white fillings offer a seamless look and blend well with surrounding teeth. However, they typically last 3 to 10 years and may not suit large cavities, as they can wear or chip over time.
Porcelain Fillings
Porcelain inlays are stain-resistant, durable, and nearly invisible, making them highly aesthetic. They cost about the same as gold fillings but provide a more natural appearance.
