Do you think your blackish tooth limits your smile? Or are your teeth sensitive to hot and cold food? Is your tooth broken and you want to fix it?
Teeth are essential to both functioning and smiling. Perfect smile is an esthetic demand of modern day and for pretty smiles, healthy teeth are necessary. This health is usually affected by tooth disease. Dental Caries is the most common tooth disease. Progressing caries forms cavities in teeth which not only compromises eating habits but also affects smile of an individual.
Restorations make it easier to perform daily functions and restore esthetics and confidence of an individual. Thanks to advancing world that such problems can be addressed completely by restoring teeth with metal (Amalgam) and tooth colored (Composite) restorations. Amalgam resorations are strong and usually used in posterior teeth where strength is primary requirement. Composite restorations, however, have lesser strength comparitively and are used in anterior teeth due to their tooth colored nature and higher aesthetics.
Tooth is restored by first removing the caries-affected part of tooth followed by placing and setting of tooth filling material. We as dentists try our best to provide what is best but patient's preference is also taken under consideration.
