Natural-Looking White Fillings in Edgware

A filling doesn’t have to mean a flash of grey metal every time you laugh. At Toothi in Edgware we use modern composite white fillings that are colour-matched to your own teeth, so repairs blend in seamlessly. White fillings start from £145, and we place them seven days a week — including Sundays.

Replacing Old Metal (Amalgam) Fillings

Many patients come to us to replace old silver amalgam fillings with tooth-coloured composite. Beyond the cosmetic improvement, modern composites bond directly to the tooth, which means we can often preserve more of your natural tooth structure than with amalgam. If you’d like your old metal fillings switched to white ones, we’ll assess each tooth first and give you a clear written plan with exact pricing before any treatment begins.

What Happens at Your Appointment

Your dentist gently removes the decay or the old filling, prepares the tooth, then builds up the composite in thin layers, shaping and hardening each one with a special light. Finally the filling is polished so it feels smooth and looks like natural enamel. Most fillings are completed in a single visit under local anaesthetic, and you can eat normally again shortly afterwards.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do white fillings last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, composite fillings typically last many years. Larger fillings under heavy bite pressure may eventually be better restored with an inlay or onlay — we’ll always advise what’s right for each tooth.

Is it safe to remove amalgam fillings?
Yes. We follow careful removal protocols and only recommend replacement when it benefits you — we’ll never pressure you into unnecessary treatment.

Do white fillings hurt?
The tooth is fully numbed with local anaesthetic, so you shouldn’t feel pain during treatment. Mild sensitivity for a day or two afterwards is normal.

Can I get a white filling in an emergency?
Yes — if you’ve lost a filling or broken a tooth, our emergency dentist can usually see you the same day for £65.
