Ceramic fillings
We think that this revolutionary dental procedure will make quite an impression on you. Ceramic restorations are a perfection in dentistry.
Another tooth-colored alternative to composite resin fillings are ceramic fillings, which are often made of porcelain, making them more resistant to staining. They are chemically bonded to natural teeth which can even strengthen them and may last for over 15 years. These materials may be long lasting, but are not very appealing. Composites or tooth-colored fillings used in the front teeth look good but cannot withstand biting forces in the back teeth.
Ceramic restorations are similar in hardness to natural tooth structure, but more importantly resemble your natural tooth. They are bonded to your existing tooth structure and can reestablish its original strength.
