Dental fillingsin Congleton and Macclesfield
Restore strength and appearance without compromising your smile.
Rediscover comfortand confidence
Sometimes, it’s a small chip. Other times, you only notice a spot of decay when biting down. Left alone, these little things can grow into bigger issues.
At Moody Terrace Dental Practice, we offer both composite and traditional fillings to restore and protect teeth that have started to wear, break, or decay. The material depends on what’s best for the tooth and for you. Our goal is always to keep things healthy and as practical as possible.
Types and benefitsof fillings we offer
We use two main types of fillings depending on where the damage is, how visible it is, and what your tooth needs long-term.
- Composite fillings
Often referred to as white or tooth-coloured fillings, composite fillings are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. They are strong, discreet, and ideal for areas that show when you talk or smile. For this reason, they are our preferred choice in most cases, including front teeth and visible areas, where aesthetics and function are equally important. - Amalgam fillings
Amalgam fillings are a durable material that may be used in certain situations, typically in back teeth that experience heavy chewing forces. We tend to reserve amalgam for specific clinical circumstances such as when moisture control is particularly challenging, and only when it is the most appropriate option for the tooth.
- Stops further tooth decay
- Relieves sensitivity and pain
- Restores normal chewing function
- Strengthens weakened teeth
- Matches your natural tooth (composite)
- Long-lasting protection
