Several types of dental fillings are available, all with pros and cons, such as
Composite Fillings: These fillings are also called tooth-colored fillings and match perfectly to your natural teeth’s look.
Silver Fillings: If you are looking for affordable fillings, these fillings are cheap and last for many years to come. However, they are not aesthetically pleasing at all and are very visible.
Ceramic Fillings: These porcelain fillings can easily last up to a decade but are prone to breakage and stains. Additionally, you’ll have to pay more than what you would for composite fillings.
Cast Gold Fillings: These fillings are similar to silver fillings (Amalgams) in terms of strength and durability; however, they will cost you more. Furthermore, they look better than their silver counterparts.
