Fillings

• Tooth-coloured fillings: Most people in our days prefer the tooth-coloured fillings ("white") fillings.  The most widely used direct material is called "composite resin". They are now strong and durable although they may be best for small to medium-sized fillings
• Silver fillings ("Amalgam"): Less popular nowadays . But we still offer this alternate option for our patients who prefer this material as it has been used for over 150 years and it is strong and long lasting.  The Australian Dental Association, the World Health Organisation and the International Dental Federation have all agreed that dental amalgam as a filling material is safe, despite all the publicity on this matter.

Extractions

• Simple extractions may be carried under local anaesthesia for different reasons. Some of these are orthodontic purpose, badly decayed  tooth and severe periodontal diseases.

Partial Dentures

• Partial denture is a simple and economical option to replace missing or extracted teeth.  It is a removable prothesis. Good oral hygiene and homecare of this prosthesis are important to maintain good oral health.
• New aesthetic Flexible Partial is now available. It looks like your teeth and gums. Unlike conventional partial denture, it does not have any metal clasps so people can not tell you are wearing a prosthesis..
