Aesthetic Filling

What is Aesthetic Filling?
Aesthetic filling, which has replaced the black filling application in recent years, is a filling method that solves missing and damaged teeth without causing any appearance concerns. Aesthetic fillings made in tooth color are applied to both front and back teeth. Aesthetic filling bonded with a special light technique is preferred because amalgam fillings do not meet aesthetic expectations. While aesthetic dental fillings prepared from composite and porcelain materials were used only as front tooth fillings in the 1960s, today they can also be applied to back teeth.

Why Should Aesthetic Filling Be Done?
In cases where oral hygiene is not maintained or over time, cavities, fractures and wear may occur on the teeth. Filling applications, which are aesthetic dentistry treatment methods, can be used to restore broken and decayed teeth to their former form. Aesthetic fillings that eliminate the bad appearance created by black fillings:

    • Elimination of permanent discoloration of teeth
    • Repair of teeth that are decayed and broken for any reason
    • Closing the gaps between the teeth or extending the length of the teeth
    • It can be applied to create a personalized smile design by changing the shape of the teeth.
 
Aesthetic dental fillings are generally performed to restore the teeth's former appearance, health and strength. It is one of the aesthetic dentistry applications that is both visually and functionally satisfying.

Aesthetic Filling Application Time
The advantages of aesthetic dental filling include the short application time. Although the duration of the aesthetic filling procedure varies depending on the size of the tooth to be filled and the damage to the tooth, it is completed in approximately half an hour.
