Common Dental Filling Materials Explained
- Composite Resin (Tooth-Colored): Bonds directly to enamel, preserves maximum healthy tooth structure, and blends seamlessly in both front and back teeth.
- Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC): Releases gentle fluoride and works nicely near gumline areas or pediatric primary teeth.
- Indirect Ceramic Inlays / Onlays: Precision laboratory restorations sometimes chosen when wider chewing strength is required.
Simple Aftercare After Receiving a Composite Filling
Light-cured composite fillings harden completely right in the dental chair. If local anesthesia was used, simply wait until lip or tongue numbness wears off completely before chewing hot meals so you do not accidentally bite soft tissues.
