What are dental “composites “and how are they used?
Composites are a combination of resins that have become the most versatile materials in the history of dentistry. Tooth-colored, they are soft and shapeable when applied to a tooth, and they quickly harden in place. For people, in contrast to silver-colored amalgams, composite resins make it possible to fill cavities of visible teeth in a way that blends in. More than that, composite resins have come into broad use as a versatile means of upgrading the appearance of unsightly teeth. The natural-looking material is used, for example, to fill in chipped tooth edges, coat discolored front surfaces, reshape imperfect teeth and close gaps between teeth. Are you unhappy with the appearance of your teeth? Tell the dentist. Composite resins are among several types of solutions now available that are painless and within your means.
