Cavities, chips, and worn edges can weaken teeth and distract from your smile. At Sea of Pearls Dental Boutique, Dr. Daniela Oliveira restores strength and appearance with modern, bonded materials that blend with natural enamel. Tooth-Colored Fillings repair damage discreetly while helping preserve healthy tooth structure for long-term comfort and function.
Often called composite restorations or “white fillings,” these treatments use a shaded resin that bonds to enamel and dentin. The material is sculpted to match the tooth’s shape and polished for a seamless finish. Because it bonds microscopically to the surface, less healthy structure needs to be removed compared with non-bonded options.
You may be a great fit if you have:
small to moderate cavities
chipped edges or worn biting surfaces
old, stained fillings that need replacement
spaces near the gumline caused by abrasion or recession
Healthy gums and good home care help ensure predictable results. Dr. Oliveira will evaluate bite forces, crack lines, and moisture control to confirm the most stable solution.
Natural esthetics: custom shades blend with surrounding enamel.
Conservative prep: bonding allows smaller preparations that retain more tooth.
Supportive strength: adhesion helps reinforce remaining structure.
Metal-free option: no visible dark edges or temperature sensitivity from metal.
Versatility: repairs cavities, chips, and cosmetic discrepancies in one visit.
Polishable surface: resists stain when maintained properly.
Cost-effective: efficient chair time with durable results.
Comfort First. Local anesthesia keeps the visit comfortable; gentle techniques and a calm, boutique setting help reduce anxiety.
Preparation. Decay or weakened areas are removed conservatively. The tooth is isolated to keep it dry for strong bonding.
Bonding & Sculpting. Layers of composite are placed and light-cured, recreating natural contours and contact with neighboring teeth.
Polish & Bite Check. The surface is shaped and polished to a smooth, glossy finish, then your bite is adjusted for comfort.
Resume normal eating once numbness wears off. Mild sensitivity to cold can occur briefly and typically settles within days. Brush twice daily with a soft brush, clean between teeth, and keep regular hygiene visits. With good care and balanced bite forces, bonded restorations can serve reliably for many years. Nightguards are recommended if you clench or grind.
Dark margins or recurrent decay around metal restorations may warrant replacement. Composite offers a seamless look and can reduce shadowing that sometimes shows through thin enamel. Dr. Oliveira will review x-rays and discuss whether a direct bonded repair or a more reinforced option is best for larger areas.
Direct fillings are ideal for small to moderate defects. When a tooth has extensive cracks, heavy chewing loads, or large, multi-surface decay, a lab-made inlay or onlay (or a full crown) may provide better strength and longevity. We’ll explain pros and cons so you can choose the most predictable path for your situation.
