Tooth Colored Fillings
Tooth colored fillings are also referred to as composites, because they
are composed of a complex composite of plastic and zirconia/silica.
Tooth colored fillings are actually bonded to teeth compared to silver/amalgam fillings, which are not.
How long to tooth colored fillings last?
Tooth colored fillings now are harder and more durable than silver/amalgam fillings. A small filling could conceivably last your lifetime,
and larger fillings can be expected to last many years. The factors
that determine the lifespan of a particular filling include: the tooth, the
size of the filling relative to the tooth, and how teeth are cleaned and
maintained daily.
