Dental Fillings

Restore the strength and beauty of your teeth with modern, mercury-free dental fillings at Just Dentistry. Using high-quality composite resin that perfectly matches your natural tooth color, we can repair cavities, cracks, and wear with minimal tooth preparation. Our seamless restorations bond directly to your enamel, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution that keeps your smile healthy and looking completely natural.

Tooth-coloured Composite Restorations

Modern tooth fillings are mercury-free composite fillings that match your tooth colour:

  • Can be bonded directly to your enamel
  • Require less tooth preparation
  • Are smaller than traditional metal fillings
  • Provide a more seamless match with your tooth enamel.

Dental Filling Procedure and Maintenance

Cavity Preparation

The dentist will begin the procedure by removing any remaining decay and shaping the final cavity.

Composite Resin Filling Material

The next step will be the addition of a composite-resin filling material, which is then cured (hardened) with a curing light. The final step will be polishing the filling to adapt it smoothly to the natural shape of the tooth.

Inlays and Onlays

In some cases, cavity preparation could become very large for the filling and the dentist will recommend an inlay or an onlay (partial crown) rather than a filling – a restoration procedure designed to replace more tooth structure than a normal filling. This is accomplished by having an impression made and the inlay or onlay prepared in a dental laboratory. The final placement of the inlay or onlay will be made during a second visit at Just Dentistry.

Regular Check-ups

Fillings do not last forever so it is essential that you visit us regularly for scheduled check-ups. Fillings can develop cracks or simply wear down due to chewing forces. The dentist monitors the integrity of your fillings during regular exams and will recommend replacing a filling if a problem is detected.

If you are looking for an experienced dentists in London for fillings procedures, please give Just Dentistry a call at 519-471-0984 to schedule a consultation with one of our dentists.

Frequently Asked Questions

Unlike traditional metal fillings, composite restorations are mercury-free and can be color-matched to your natural enamel. They require less removal of your tooth structure and bond directly to the enamel, which strengthens the tooth. Because they blend in seamlessly, they are an ideal choice for both front and back teeth.
When a cavity or fracture is too large for a standard filling but not severe enough for a full crown, we may recommend an inlay or onlay. These “partial crowns” are custom-fabricated in a dental laboratory to replace more significant tooth structure. They offer superior durability and fit for larger restorations that require extra strength.
While modern fillings are incredibly strong, they are not permanent. Over time, the daily pressure of chewing can cause fillings to wear down or develop small cracks. On average, they last many years, but we monitor their integrity during your regular check-ups to ensure they remain secure and recommend replacement only when a problem is detected.
Most standard fillings can be completed in a single visit. We begin by removing any decay and shaping the area, then apply the resin in layers, hardening each with a special curing light. The final step is polishing the material so it feels smooth and natural against your tongue and matches your bite perfectly.
