White Fillings in Cheam
Tooth-coloured fillings that restore your tooth and blend naturally with your smile
Composite Fillings That No One Will Notice
Gone are the days when a filling meant a flash of silver every time you laughed or yawned. Modern white fillings blend so naturally with your teeth that no one will know they’re there and now they can match the strength of metal alternatives.
At Nonsuch Park Dental, we use high-quality composite fillings to repair decay and damage while keeping your smile looking its best. Whether you need a new filling or want to replace old metal amalgam fillings, tooth-coloured fillings offer a discreet, durable solution.
Dr Tobi takes care to match the shade and shape of your natural teeth, so your filling looks and feels like it was always part of your smile.
What's Included in Getting a Dental Filling
A filling is used to repair a tooth that has been damaged by decay, a crack, or general wear. The process is straightforward and usually completed in a single appointment.
Dr Tobi will start by numbing the area with local anaesthetic so you’re comfortable throughout. He’ll then remove any decay and clean the tooth before applying the composite material in layers. Each layer is hardened with a special light, and the filling is shaped and polished to match the contours of your tooth.
The result is a strong, natural-looking restoration that blends seamlessly with your smile. Tooth-coloured fillings in Cheam also bond directly to the tooth, which can help strengthen it and reduce the risk of future cracks.
White fillings start from £145. We’ll always explain your options and provide a clear quote before any treatment begins. 0% interest-free finance is available to spread the cost if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between white fillings and silver fillings?
Silver (amalgam) fillings are made from a mix of metals and are very durable, but they’re visible when you open your mouth. White (composite) fillings are made from a tooth-coloured resin that blends with your natural teeth, giving a more discreet result.
Although metal fillings can be stronger than white fillings, metal tends to weaken the tooth, whereas composite can help reinforce the tooth structure.
Can I replace my old metal fillings with white ones?
Yes. Many patients choose to replace their amalgam fillings with composite fillings in Cheam for a more natural appearance. Dr Tobi will assess your existing fillings and advise whether replacement is a good option for you.
How long do white fillings last?
With good care, white fillings typically last 5 to 10 years, depending on their size and location. We’ll give you advice on how to look after your filling to maximise its lifespan.
Are white fillings as strong as metal fillings?
Modern composite materials are very durable and suitable for most fillings. For very large restorations or teeth under heavy biting pressure, Dr Tobi may recommend an alternative such as a crown or onlay.
Does getting a filling hurt?
Not at all. We use a local anaesthetic to numb the area before we start, so you won’t feel any pain during the procedure. Most patients find it quick and comfortable.
How do I care for my filling?
Brush twice a day, floss daily, and attend regular check-ups. Avoid biting down on very hard objects like ice or pen caps, which can damage any filling over time.
