Composite (white) fillings are tooth-colored restorations used to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay or trauma. Made of a durable composite resin material, these fillings blend seamlessly with the natural teeth, providing both aesthetic appeal and functional support. Composite fillings are a popular choice for pediatric dental patients due to their ability to restore the natural appearance of the smile while effectively restoring dental health.
