What is an Aesthetic Filling? What are the Benefits?
At DentMax Balikesir, aesthetic fillings are restorations made of composite resin that matches the tooth shade. They offer natural integration with the teeth, preserve function, and provide durability. Benefits include seamless color harmony, reduced risk of fractures, and protection of tooth structure. Aesthetic fillings are often combined with Composite (White) Fillings, Bonding, or broader Restorative Dentistry approaches.
How Does the Process Work?
The procedure begins with an examination. The decayed or damaged portion is cleaned, and layers of composite resin are applied. Each layer is hardened with a curing light. Finally, the filling is shaped and polished for a natural look. In some cases, it can be combined with Root Canal Treatment or followed by Teeth Whitening for enhanced esthetics.
Prices and Costs – Balikesir Dental Clinic
The prices and costs of aesthetic fillings depend on the number of teeth treated, the size of the cavity, and the materials used. Small, single-surface fillings differ in price from larger, multi-surface restorations. At DentMax Balikesir, exact costs are determined after examination and treatment planning.
