Lubbock White Fillings

White fillings by Lubbock dentist Dr. Burke make your teeth stronger, are more comfortable, and provide a much more natural look than traditional silver amalgam fillings.

Advantages of White Composite

It is our preference to use white composite fillings, due to the many advantages:

  • Less of the tooth has to be drilled away when placing composite fillings.
  • There is less tooth sensitivity since the metal in amalgam conducts heat and cold.
  • The technology that bonds them to the tooth makes your tooth stronger, where amalgam weakens the overall tooth structure.
  • They are a comfortable and convenient way to fill small cavities.
  • Composite contains no mercury.
  • They are much more aestetically-pleasing and blend in beautifully with your natural tooth color.
