Dr. Wael Badr's clinic offers a variety of dental services, including the use of composite fillings, which are considered one of the latest and best techniques used to restore damaged teeth.
What are composite fillings?
Composite fillings, also known as cosmetic fillings or white fillings, are restorative materials used to fill cavities caused by decay, fractures, or damage. These fillings are characterized by their color, which closely resembles the natural color of the tooth, making them an excellent aesthetic option.
Advantages of composite fillings at Dr. Wael Badr's clinic:
Highly aesthetic: The color of the filling is chosen to perfectly match the color of the surrounding natural tooth, making it virtually invisible and maintaining an attractive smile.
Strong adhesion to the tooth surface: Composite filling materials consist of special resins that chemically bond to the tooth surface, providing strong support and reducing the risk of leakage around the filling.
Preserving a larger portion of the natural tooth: In some cases, placing metal fillings may require removing a larger portion of the tooth to ensure stability. While light-based fillings allow for more preservation of natural tooth structure due to their strong bonding.
Rapid hardening: The light-based filling is hardened using a special light (polymer light), allowing the dentist to precisely shape it and achieve immediate results.
Safe and metal-free: Light-based fillings are a safe option and free of metals such as the mercury found in amalgam (silver) fillings.
Versatile: Light-based fillings can be used to restore cavities in front and back teeth, repair small fractures, and correct some dental imperfections such as small gaps.
The procedure for placing a light-based filling at Dr. Wael
Badr's clinic often includes the following steps:
Diagnosis and anesthesia: Dr. Wael Badr examines the affected tooth and determines the need for a filling. The area is numbed locally to ensure comfort during the procedure.
Cavity cleaning: The decayed or damaged parts of the tooth are removed, and the cavity is thoroughly cleaned and prepared for the placement of the filling.
Layered filling: The light-based filling material is placed in small layers, with each layer hardened using a special polymer light. This technique ensures the strength and durability of the filling.
Shaping and Smoothing the Filling: The doctor shapes the filling to match the natural tooth shape and the patient's bite. The surface is then smoothed to provide a comfortable and seamless fit.
Polishing: In the final step, the filling is polished to achieve a natural shine and aesthetic appearance.
