Filling Replacement in Fulham – Restore Strength and Aesthetics to Your Smile
Over time, dental fillings can wear out, crack, or become loose, compromising both the health and appearance of your teeth. At Bespoke Dental Fulham, we offer expert filling replacement services to restore your teeth’s strength, functionality, and aesthetics. Whether your existing filling is deteriorating, discoloured, or you simply prefer a more natural-looking option, we provide tailored solutions using the latest materials and techniques.
Why Replace Your Fillings?
Dental fillings play a crucial role in protecting teeth from further decay and damage. However, they are not designed to last forever. Over time, fillings may weaken, allowing bacteria to infiltrate and potentially cause deeper decay. Common reasons for replacing a filling include:
Wear and Tear – Fillings endure daily chewing forces and may crack or break over time.
Decay Under the Filling – Bacteria can seep into tiny gaps around an aging filling, leading to further decay.
Discolouration – Older fillings, especially silver amalgam, can darken over time and affect the appearance of your smile.
Tooth Sensitivity or Pain – If you’re experiencing discomfort in a filled tooth, it may be due to a failing or loose filling.
Upgrading to More Aesthetic Materials – Many patients choose to replace metal fillings with tooth-coloured composite for a more natural look.
What Are the Options for Filling Replacement?
At Bespoke Dental Fulham, we offer several types of modern filling materials, tailored to suit your needs and preferences:
Composite Fillings
Aesthetic, tooth-coloured material that blends seamlessly with natural teeth
Durable and strong, making them ideal for both front and back teeth
Bond directly to the tooth, requiring less removal of healthy enamel
Ceramic (Porcelain) Fillings
Highly durable and resistant to staining
Ideal for larger cavities and patients looking for a long-lasting solution
Custom-made to match the natural tooth shade
Glass Ionomer Fillings
Release fluoride to help protect the tooth from further decay
Often used for children’s teeth or areas of minimal bite pressure
Not as strong as composite or ceramic options but beneficial in certain cases
