Common questions
How long do tooth-coloured fillings last?
With good oral care they usually last 5–10 years. Habits such as biting hard objects can shorten their life.
Is the procedure painful?
It's done under local anaesthetic. You may feel slight sensitivity afterwards, which passes quickly.
Can I whiten my teeth after getting fillings?
Whitening doesn't change the colour of a filling. If you're considering whitening, it's best to whiten first and then renew the fillings to match.
Do they stain over time?
Smoking, coffee and tea can cause slight discolouration over time; regular care and cleaning keep this to a minimum.
