Tooth colored fillings, also known as white fillings and composite fillings, are comprised of plastic, silica and glass particles. Composite fillings are commonly used to restore decayed teeth.
What are Composite Fillings?
These substances replicate a lot of the qualities of the natural tooth structure like translucency and resistance to wear. The blend of these particles is often referred to as a composite.
