Composite (white) fillings

If you require a filling in your tooth, a white ‘composite’ filling provides a modern, aesthetic and hard-wearing solution that matches the colour of your tooth.

White fillings help to restore the tooth back to full strength and give the appearance and function of a natural tooth, they can also be used to replace old amalgam (metal-based fillings).* They allow for the dentist to preserve much more of your natural tooth and therefore also provide a minimally invasive solution.

Composite fillings are also used to close gaps or improve the shape of any uneven, rough or crooked teeth. Our highly skilled dentists are trained to build-up teeth using different shades of white fillings and complex techniques to create invisible, strong restorations, mimicking the natural appearance of human nature.

If you’re looking for affordable and natural looking white fillings in Sunbury-on-Thames, book a consultation with the restorative experts at Dental House today!

*As of 2018, amalgam (metal-based) fillings are no longer offered to children under 15 years, pregnant or breastfeeding women, except when deemed strictly necessary on the grounds of specific medical needs of the patient.

Is getting a filling painful?

Filling treatment is not usually painful for most patients, as our Sunbury-based dentists use local anaesthetic and numbing gel to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure. Afterwards, you may experience slightly increased sensitivity to temperature or pressure; however, this should settle down after a few days.

How long does it take to get a filling?

This depends on the type of filling treatment you are undergoing and the number of fillings required, as well as the size and location of the fracture or cavity being treated. However, you should expect your filling appointment to take up to an hour.

How do I clean my filling?

Extra care should be taken when cleaning your teeth, as the edges of the filling may trap bacteria, leading to further decay or infection. It is recommended to add daily flossing to your oral hygiene regimen if you don’t already do so.

Always professional! Good service!
It’s hard to find real customer service these days. This practice excels at it!
Wendy is the best!
This dental practice is fantastic for new patients. All the staff are lovely and friendly and helped to ease my initial nerves with kindness and excellent advice. They also have a TV to watch during sessions which is really fun and helps to keep you distracted.
Where do I even begin!

Dr Shamir and the entire team are truly outstanding. From the moment I walked in, I was met with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. I had teeth realignment using Spark (Invisalign), followed by whitening and composite bonding, and the results have genuinely exceeded all my expectations.

What really stood out was how honest and considered the approach was - Dr Shamir only recommended and carried out work where it was truly necessary. That not only saved me a significant amount of money, but still delivered exceptional, high-quality results.

The entire journey was smooth and well-managed, from my initial consultation right through to the final result. Every step was clearly explained, and I always felt comfortable and confident in the process. I’m almost sad it’s come to an end!

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them - if you’re considering treatment, go ahead and book your appointment. You’ll be in great hands, and the results speak for themselves, all at very reasonable prices.
Always have a really great experience coming here, the dentists are all extremely professional and good at what they do, and the entire staff is really friendly!
This is a wonderful dental practice. I’ve been coming here for a long time, and nothing is ever too much trouble. The treatments are excellent, and the dentist and hygienist are always so understanding and gentle
I recently visited Dr Hassan Abbas at Dental House and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results. I had Invisalign elsewhere and was unhappy with the shape and overall appearance of the composite bonding on my upper central incisors and lateral incisors. The results look so natural and have completely boosted my confidence.

He was professional, meticulate, and took the time to explain everything clearly, which made me feel really comfortable throughout the whole process. You can tell he genuinely cares about his patients and takes pride in his dental work.

Highly recommend Dr Hassan Abbas at Dental House if you’re considering any cosmetic dental work.
My mum came to get an extraction done and was very impressed with the service. She would like to thank the whole team at Dental House and particularly Dr Abbas. Made her feel very comfortable throughout the whole process.
Best dental practice I have ever been a patient. Everyone is super helpful and nice. And since I have been a patient my teeth have been in a much better place.
I've been going to Dental House for a few years and as a very nervous patient, I've always had really positive experiences there. Dr Shamir and the hygenists are all very gentle,understanding and professional.
Amazing, amazing, amazing!!! Brilliant dentists and the loveliest, kindest and supportive team. Best dental practice I have ever known and would highly recommend them to all and especially to those who may have a fear of the dentist. They are unbelievably understanding and eliminate any fears you may have whilst providing you with a 5 star service during every visit. Their after care is also second to none and the friendliest people you might ever meet. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all at Dental House!!! Very best wishes and I look forward to seeing you all again soon, Gordon Yates x
