Tooth-Colored Restorations in Sushant Lok, Gurgaon
Restore teeth discreetly with natural-looking fillings
Quick answer
Tooth-coloured fillings use composite resin matched to your natural shade to repair cavities, chips and worn areas. At Kapoor's Safe Hands Dental in Sushant Lok, Gurgaon, most are finished in a single visit, and because the material bonds to the tooth, less healthy tooth needs to be removed.

How a Composite Filling Is Done
Step 1: The area is numbed so you're comfortable.
Step 2: We remove the decay and clean the cavity.
Step 3: A bonding agent is applied, then the composite is built up in thin layers.
Step 4: Each layer is hardened with a special light.
Step 5: The filling is shaped, polished and checked against your bite.
Composite or Silver Fillings?
Composite bonds to the tooth, matches its colour and needs less tooth removed. Silver amalgam has been used for decades and holds up well, but it's obvious and doesn't bond to the tooth. Which one is better depends on the size and position of the cavity. When most of a tooth has gone, a crown or an inlay may last longer than any filling.
Fillings, Crowns and Sealants: What's the Difference?
Sealants: a thin protective coating on the grooves of healthy back teeth, especially in children, to keep decay out
Fillings: repair a cavity or small break in a tooth
Crowns: cover and protect a tooth that has lost a lot of its structure
After Your Filling
Wait until the numbness wears off, usually a couple of hours, before you chew, or you may bite your cheek or tongue
Mild sensitivity to hot and cold for a few days is normal
If your bite feels high, come back and we'll adjust it
Brush, floss and keep your regular check-ups

- Early cavities are often painless, so check-ups matter.
- Sealants protect the grooves of back teeth, especially in children.
- Large cavities may need a crown instead.
