Dental Fillings.
We are a proudly Amalgam-Free practice. We do not use traditional silver-mercury fillings. Instead, we use BPA-safe composite resins and ceramics. These materials are biocompatible and allow us to preserve more of your natural tooth structure during the restoration process. To help your restoration last and look natural, we use materials from 3M ESPE and Ivoclar. These composites mimic the strength and light-reflection of natural enamel, so your filling is both durable and natural-looking.

On the day.
- The "Chameleon Effect": these materials blend into your tooth's unique shade, so the filling is hard to notice
- Fine-particle composites: ultra-fine particles give the filling a smooth finish
- Modern bonding technique: designed to reduce the "shrinkage" that can contribute to post-treatment sensitivity
- Amalgam-free and BPA-safe composites (3M ESPE / Ivoclar)

How dental fillings is delivered.
- Step 01
Consultation & examination
We begin with a conversation about what you're noticing and what you want from your teeth long-term. A clinical examination and any imaging needed follows.
- Step 02
Findings & plan
Dr. Nick walks you through what he sees, what's urgent, what's optional, and what can wait. No surprises, no pressure — just a clear picture and your options.
- Step 03
Treatment
Appointments scheduled around your life. Everything explained as we go. Time taken to do the work properly.
- Step 04
Maintenance
Regular check-ups keep small problems small. We'll agree on a recall interval that makes sense for your mouth.
Risks & considerations
Post-operative sensitivity for a few days is common, particularly with deeper fillings. Rarely, a tooth with extensive decay may later need root canal treatment if the nerve is affected. If more than 50% of the tooth structure is missing or weakened, a Same-Day CEREC Crown may be a better long-term option than a large filling — we'll talk through both at consultation.
All dental procedures carry potential risks and benefits. Individual results vary. A consultation with a registered dental practitioner is required to determine whether a treatment is suitable for you.
