No more dark metal fillings. Dr. Anushka Ayare uses premium composite resin, perfectly shade-matched to your natural tooth, bonded for strength, and placed in a single appointment.
Dr. Anushka Ayare leads tooth-coloured fillings at Tulip Dental, placing composite restorations with 5× magnification loupes for precision that is simply not possible with the naked eye. Every shade is custom-matched. Every filling is invisible.
She uses only premium international composite brands, 3M Filtek and Tokuyama Estelite, materials used widely in cosmetic dentistry worldwide.
Composite resin fills cavities invisibly. The material bonds directly to tooth structure, no extra drilling needed for mechanical retention, so less healthy tooth is removed compared to old amalgam fillings.
Composite can also replace existing silver or dark amalgam fillings for a completely metal-free smile. The procedure is completed in a single appointment with no waiting, you leave the same day with a perfect, invisible result.
Your tooth shade is carefully matched using a shade guide and custom trays. The cavity is prepared conservatively, only decayed tissue removed, preserving maximum healthy structure.
A bonding agent is applied, then composite is placed in precise layers, each layer cured and hardened with a UV light. This incremental technique ensures strength and minimises shrinkage.
The filling is sculpted to match your tooth's natural anatomy and contours, then polished to a smooth, high-lustre finish. Completely invisible, indistinguishable from your natural tooth.
The clinical evidence is clear. Here is how tooth-coloured composite compares to old silver amalgam fillings.
| Factor | Composite (Tooth-Coloured) | Amalgam (Silver/Metal) |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Tooth-coloured, invisible | Grey-black, visible when you smile |
| Tooth Structure Removed | Minimal, adhesive bond to tooth | More removal required for mechanical retention |
| Mercury Content | None, completely mercury-free | ~50% mercury by weight |
| Bond to Tooth | Adhesive, chemically bonded, reinforces tooth | Mechanical only, no adhesive bond |
| Durability | 7–10+ years with good care | 10–15 years |
| Starting Cost at Tulip Dental | quoted after examination | Not offered, we are metal-free |
On amalgam: Tulip Dental does not place new amalgam fillings. We use only tooth-coloured composite, the material recommended by modern dentistry for its adhesive properties, aesthetics, and absence of mercury. Old amalgam fillings can be safely removed and replaced at any time.
