Nobody wants a mouth full of metal. That’s why our team at Renaissance Dental offers tooth-colored fillings—a cleaner, more natural-looking way to treat cavities and fix decayed teeth. These seamless restorations are color-matched to your natural enamel, so once they’re complete, they'll blend right into your smile. Whether you need a new filling or want to replace an old metal one, we're ready to help.
Tooth-colored fillings are restorations made from composite resin—a liquid made of dental-grade polymer combined with silica or glass particles. Unlike traditional amalgam fillings made from metal, composite resin won’t leave noticeable silver spots on your teeth. Instead, the material is carefully shaded to match the natural color of your enamel. The result is a restoration that blends in so well that it’s virtually invisible.
Getting a tooth-colored filling at Renaissance Dental is easy and usually only takes a single visit. Here’s a brief look at the process:
Before anything happens, our team will numb the area around your tooth to ensure your comfort. Next, we’ll remove any decay and clean your tooth thoroughly to kill any lingering bacteria.
After cleaning, the composite resin is applied in thin layers, each one hardened with a specialized curing light before the next is added. Once the filling is shaped and polished, we'll check your bite to make sure everything feels right.
The entire process generally takes less than 30 minutes, and the results can last for several years with a good oral care routine.
Composite resin fillings offer several advantages over traditional metal options, making them a popular choice for patients of all ages at our Fort Worth practice:
