Choosing White Fillings in Leeds

There is a huge clamour among the general public right now to get the best looking teeth that they can in Leeds, and why not eh? People are constantly bombarded in the media with images of people with precious teeth in their mouths and seeing as the way modern cosmetic dentistry has evolved, getting this look is available to everyone now, so why not? One of the biggest ‘no-no’s’ right now is to have grey, amalgam fillings and slowly, these are being phased out and being replaced by white fillings that look more natural in the mouth. These fillings are not in anyway metal based like amalgam, but made from ceramics and resins. They are easy to fit and look beautiful, though most dentists will shy away from removing your amalgam fillings just to replace them with white fillings- though they can cover them over. However, there is a downside to these new styles of fillings. They are still to prove themselves when it comes to longevity and have a reputation of being weak and falling out, this is because they have a habit of shrinking when setting. However, the materials used in white fillings are evolving all of the time and they will get better- plus, they truly are the way forward if you really want that natural look in your mouth.
