Cosmetic tooth filling is recommended in the following cases:

• Altered tooth color
• Improper tooth shape or position
• Tooth discoloration, chipping (due to biting)
• Increased tooth sensitivity to heat or cold
• Loss of a tooth fragment
• Wear or loss of tooth enamel
• Teeth damaged by trauma
• Teeth affected by dental caries
• Unwanted gaps between teeth
• Creating smile harmony after orthodontic treatment

The advantages of cosmetic tooth filling are as follows:

• Less intervention in the hard tooth tissues
• Fewer visits, with results usually achieved in a single appointment
• Lower cost of the service

Changes in color or other alterations in cosmetic fillings may occur due to the aging of composite materials and various factors in the oral cavity, such as pH, dietary pigments, eating habits, tobacco influence, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical forces such as bruxism and biting. Therefore, patient motivation to maintain oral health is crucial. Patient cooperation and regular care by a dentist and dental hygienist are necessary for successful treatment and long-lasting results.

Personal oral hygiene is crucial, and we advise visiting the clinic for professional dental hygiene at least twice a year. During professional dental hygiene, the condition of fillings, the risk of caries, and the impact of bruxism (tooth grinding) are assessed, and restorations are polished. Well-polished restoration surfaces reduce bacterial buildup and the risk of secondary caries. Restorations are renewed, and ozone therapy is performed, preserving gum health while maintaining excellent aesthetics.
