White Fillings in New Eltham, London SE9
Replacing Amalgam Fillings ✓
For over 150 years, cavities were filled with a mixture of metals, including silver and mercury. It was perfectly normal to see dark grey areas in someone’s mouth when they laughed.
But today, you can have cavities, as well as any other smaller hollow areas in your teeth, filled with composite fillings. White fillings, or composite fillings, are made from resins that are matched to your tooth’s colour – so they become invisible when applied.
Composite fillings also provide an excellent seal on the affected area, so that tooth decay can be prevented. The factors that go into our decision to use composite fillings include:
- The size of the area that needs to be filled
- The location of the affected area in the mouth (i.e., a tooth that is heavily relied on for chewing)
- Allergies the patient might have.
- The preference of the patient regarding the use of metals in the mouth.
- Whether it is necessary cosmetically to have a tooth-coloured filling.

I recently completed Invisalign with Max – he made the whole experience easy and stress free. Is he openly contactable to answer any questions you may have. Max always ensures to fit your appointment in, regardless of how busy he is. For anyone looking for a dental practice in the local area or looking to start Invisalign, I couldn’t recommend Max enough.

The team at Pura will make you love the dentist!! 😄 I’ve had both Laura and Max for various fillings, deep cleans, a crown & now Invisalign and they are always so helpful and accommodating. I would never switch dentists!! ⭐️

I had an Invisalign treatment at Pura Dental Care, and I’m delighted with the outcome – the results even surpassed what Dr Max expected to see. The staff were great – caring, friendly and personable. I’m very happy with choosing this practise.
