Restore the health of your teeth and improve the look of your smile with natural-coloured fillings.
Our natural-coloured or composite fillings are made from either porcelain or resin composites. We take care to select a shade that matches your teeth flawlessly for a comfortable feel and long-lasting fit. These fillings are an excellent option for strengthening teeth that have been filled with amalgam in the past, and they can refresh your smile.
At The Parade Dental Practice, we’re here to help every tooth and smile. Our friendly team of dentists provides a range of general and cosmetic dental treatments. We strive to create a comfortable and calm environment for all patients, especially those who may feel nervous about dental treatments or fillings.
Our dental filling treatments can improve your oral health and elevate the appearance of your teeth. Cavities and decay can weaken tooth structures, but our dental filling treatment is a safe and effective way to repair any damage.
Here are some positive outcomes and benefits of composite filling treatments:
No matter which treatment you require, our team at The Parade Dental Practice will work with you to create a personalised treatment plan that meets your needs.

Dental fillings may sound daunting at first, but the process is simple. Our exceptional team of dentists and hygienists will guide you each step of the way. We’ll start by ensuring you’re completely comfortable by numbing the tooth area beforehand – so you feel minimal discomfort during the procedure.
Once the numbing has taken effect, we use a drill to remove any decayed areas of the tooth or old amalgam filling. We’ll fill the hole with a composite resin colour-matched to your tooth, resulting in a natural look.
If you have any questions about the procedure or are ready to book an appointment, contact us at 020 8393 1337 or [email protected] and let’s help you achieve the healthy, beautiful smile you deserve.
The expected lifespan of your dental filling depends on the type of material used. Options for the types of fillings include:
While each type of filling has its own benefits, the lifespan differs. For example, amalgam (silver) fillings may last longer than composite fillings. However, the latter is quite popular due to their discreet and natural-looking appearance.
If you’re unsure about which type of filling is right for you, our dentists can advise you on the best option for your preferences and dental health.
After the treatment, the effects of the local anaesthetic will start to wear off in a few hours. Be careful not to bite your cheek or tongue, and avoid eating during this time. When you do eat, try to chew on the opposite side of your filling, and avoid hard, sticky, or sugary foods. Extremely hot or cold drinks are also best to avoid.
