White Fillings / Tooth Colored Fillings Questions
Where Your Smile Begins
Calgary, Alberta
Will tooth-colored fillings look natural?
The composite material used by Dr. Cload to fill cavities is extremely natural-looking and blends in well with natural enamel. The filling material can be customized to match your tooth shade for a result that provides subtle tooth improvement. Many of our patients who replace old metal fillings with white ones are very happy with their new smile appearance. Check out our Photo Gallery to see how natural white fillings can look.

What are the benefits of composite fillings over metal?
White fillings are obviously the preferred choice because they don’t stand out like metal fillings. White fillings won’t fracture or break natural enamel and can withstand strong biting pressure. Although they may cost more than metal, we believe they are a better investment overall.
How long will white fillings last?
The key to longevity is expert placement and good dental hygiene. They can last as long, if not longer, than metal fillings and are not vulnerable to damage caused by temperature changes. With Dr. Cload’s high level of cosmetic dentistry skill, and your willingness to take care of filled teeth, your white filling could last several years.
When should metal fillings be replaced?
Patients who seek out metal filling replacement may do so because their metal filling has weakened the tooth, is leaking, or has caused cracks in the enamel. You may also wish to replace metal with composite fillings in order to create a more attractive, uniform smile.
