Benefits Of Composite Fillings
Dental fillings prevent progression of tooth decay. The procedure repairs the damaged tooth and restores its function and appearance. Safety issues aside, white fillings have other advantages over amalgam.
The ceramic and plastic composition of white fillings looks more natural than the silver colour of amalgam fillings.
The resin of composite fillings facilitates less drilling and more preservation of healthy tooth structure. It also gives the filling strong adhesion to the tooth surface.
Another benefit of white fillings is that they can be used to change the shape and size of teeth to enhance your smile.
Replacing Amalgam Fillings
Even though it is popularly known as silver amalgam, it is actually a mixture of different metals that have been dissolved in mercury to make them safe enough to be inserted into teeth. Consequently, it is a mixture of silver, copper, tin, and mercury.  Mercury amalgam fillings can be safely removed when necessary.
After removal of your silver fillings, we’ll replace them with composite fillings in a procedure that entails:
  • Applying an acidic gel to help adhesion
  • Applying a bonding agent
  • Shaping the composite filling material into the opening in the tooth left by amalgam removal
  • Application of the filling material in layers
  • Hardening the bonding and filling material with a special blue light

The ladies are absolutely fantastic, I am terrified of dentists from a previous experience. I needed a wisdom tooth removed this was my first ever tooth extraction and I was terrified but these ladies made me feel so calm and explained everything to me before, through and after the process and it was entirely pain free. I highly recommend the team at Ocean View Dental

I had to have an emergency extraction and they accommodated me superbly. I am a very nervous dental patient at best but found their re-assurance fantastic at putting me at ease.

Amazing really caring practice. I had an awfully painful toothache and the got me in within 5 mins of me calling and stayed open after closing just to accommodate me. Their first priority was to get me out of pain. The young ladies at this practice were amazing and go above and beyond for their patients. I’ve already recommended this dentist to several of my friends. Hands down best customer experience I’ve had in a long time. Keep up the good work Oceanview, I can see why you were highly recommended on the Peninsula Facebook page

I have been using Oceanview dental for quite some time. Just wish that I had found them much earlier. The work that Anna has done for me is amazing and the care given knowing that I have other health issues. I cannot speak too highly of her and the staff. I would recommend them to everyone. ????????????????????????

We offer various competitive interest free payment plan options that will allow you to pay for your selected treatment in flexible installments.

Amalgam fillings are durable and effective, which is why they have been used for many decades. On average, you can expect a metal filling to last for about 15 years before needing to be replaced, but the length of time can vary based on several factors, such as if you grind or clench your teeth.

Composite resin fillings don’t last as long. You may need to replace them every  7 to 10 years.

Composite resin fillings are nonporous, but the material can become slightly porous over time. This usually occurs at the surface and causes the filling to stain. However, composite fillings do not respond to tooth whitening procedures.

Make sure to follow the daily recommendation of brushing and flossing your teeth twice a day after meals. Avoid foods that can stain your filling such as tea, coffee and wine. Minimise your sugary food intakes to lessen your probability of tooth decay. Use a soft toothbrush along with any non-abrasive toothpaste.
