White Fillings
Tooth-Colored White Fillings in Mississauga
Cavities happen, but treating them doesn’t mean showing off a silver smile. At St. Lawrence Dentistry, we use tooth-colored white fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. These modern fillings are stronger, more attractive, and mercury-free, making them the ideal choice for visible and hidden cavities throughout your Mississauga smile.
Why Choose White Fillings
White fillings match your natural tooth color perfectly, so no one knows you’ve had a cavity filled. They bond directly to your tooth, providing excellent strength and durability without the look of old-fashioned metal fillings.

With proper care, white fillings last 7 to 10 years or longer. They’re less prone to temperature sensitivity than metal fillings and provide a more comfortable bite.
Fast and Simple Procedure
Getting a white filling takes just one appointment. We remove the decayed portion of your tooth and fill it with durable, tooth-colored composite. Your tooth looks and feels natural when you’re done.
FAQS
Frequently asked questions

Do white fillings require special care?
No. Care for them like your natural teeth: brush twice daily, floss, and visit us every six months.
Will my white filling look obvious?
No. We shade match your filling to blend perfectly with your tooth. It will be virtually invisible.
How long does a filling appointment take?
Most fillings take 20 to 30 minutes per tooth.
