Top 10 Composite Fillings FAQs – Solihull
Quick answers to the most common questions about composite fillings in Solihull – what they’re used for, how they’re placed, and how to care for them afterwards.
1. What is a composite filling?
A composite filling is a tooth-coloured restoration used to repair a tooth affected by decay or minor damage. It’s shaped to restore the tooth’s form and function with a natural-looking finish.
2. When would I need a composite filling?
Composite fillings are used to repair cavities, chips, and worn areas that need support. They can also replace older fillings that have become worn, cracked, or are allowing sensitivity.
3. Are composite fillings better than amalgam fillings?
Composite is often chosen because it blends with the natural tooth colour. The best material depends on the tooth, the size of the cavity, and your bite – your clinician will recommend what’s most suitable.
4. What happens during a composite filling appointment?
The tooth is cleaned and prepared, then the composite is placed, shaped, and set before being polished. The bite is checked carefully so the tooth feels comfortable and functions well.
5. Does getting a composite filling hurt?
Local anaesthetic is commonly used to keep you comfortable. If you have sensitivity or you’re worried about treatment, tell your clinician so they can adapt the appointment to your needs.
6. How long do composite fillings last?
Longevity depends on the size and position of the filling, your bite, and habits such as grinding. Regular check-ups help monitor the restoration and address wear early.
7. Will my composite filling match my tooth colour?
The material is selected to match your natural tooth shade, and it’s finished to look discreet. Your clinician will explain what level of blending is realistic, particularly for larger restorations.
8. Can composite fillings stain or discolour?
They can pick up surface staining over time, depending on diet and habits. Your clinician can advise on minimising staining and whether polishing or replacement is appropriate if appearance changes.
9. Can I eat normally after a filling?
You can usually eat once numbness has worn off. If chewing feels uncomfortable or the bite feels uneven, contact the practice so it can be checked and adjusted.
10. How much do composite fillings cost?
It varies depending on how extensive the repair is and which tooth is involved. After an assessment, your clinician can provide a tailored quote and talk you through the recommended approach.

FAQs - Composite Bonding in Solihull
However, one disadvantage of composite tooth fillings is the cost. Unlike NHS dentists, where the cost may be subsidised (this is not always applicable), as we are a private dentist, the cost may be slightly higher. However, here at Beyond Dental, we have many options available when it comes to our price lists. For example, we have interest-free payment options and subscription plans available, which means this doesn’t have to be a worry for you.
If you’re in need of composite tooth filling, book a consultation with us today at our dental practice in Solihull so we can find the right treatment plan for you.
