What Is an Aesthetic Filling?

An aesthetic filling is a modern dental restoration technique that uses tooth-colored composite material to repair cavities, fractures, cracks, or discolorations in the teeth, blending seamlessly with the natural tooth structure.

When Is It Recommended?

• To treat dental cavities

• To repair broken or chipped front teeth

• To replace stained or old metal/amalgam fillings

• To close gaps between teeth (diastema)

• As part of a smile makeover or cosmetic dental plan

How Is It Performed?

1. The area is numbed with local anesthesia if necessary

2. Decay or damaged tissue is removed

3. Tooth-colored composite material is layered and sculpted

4. Each layer is cured with light

5. The surface is polished to match the natural tooth shape and shine

What Are the Advantages?

• Natural-looking results with shade-matched materials

• One-visit treatment for most cases

• Free of metals and biocompatible

• Improves the appearance of the smile

• Easily repairable or replaceable if needed

How Long Does It Last?

• Average lifespan is 5–10 years

• Can last longer with proper oral hygiene and regular check-ups

• Anterior teeth (front teeth) typically have greater longevity due to lower bite pressure

What Should Be Considered After the Procedure?

• Avoid very hard foods for the first 24 hours

• Brush twice daily and use dental floss regularly

• Limit intake of tea, coffee, and tobacco to reduce staining

• Schedule a dental check-up every 6 months
