Tooth-coloured fillings, also known as composite fillings or white fillings, are dental restorations used to repair teeth that have been affected by decay, cavities, or minor damage.
Unlike traditional silver amalgam fillings, tooth-coloured fillings are made from a composite resin material that closely matches the natural color of your teeth. This makes them a popular choice for patients who want a more aesthetically pleasing and discreet solution for restoring their teeth.

The procedure is typically completed in one visit, providing a quick and effective solution for treating cavities and restoring dental health.
During the initial consultation, our experienced dental team assesses the extent of damage, discusses treatment options, and addresses any concerns you may have.
Before the procedure, thorough preparation involves numbing the affected area and isolating the tooth for precise restoration.
The treatment phase includes the meticulous removal of decay and the application of custom-matched filling materials to restore the tooth's form and function.

I have now visited Twoth on three different occasion... The first time was to take my son (8 years old) to see Dr Counihan for a braces consultation and my son absolutely loved the entire experience from start to finish. In fact, he was so excited and relaxed about it all he wanted to get started immediately.
The second time around, I went to see Dr Counihan myself for a second opinion and found the experience just as good as my son did
Before I found Dr Neil Counihan I had a long history of dental trauma and sadly I repeatedly was subjected to very poor dentistry. I was scared to let anybody near my mouth and teeth. I had lost hope!
Dr Counihan made me the promise, with the right care I can keep my mouth healthy and definitely keep my teeth for the rest of my life.
And most importantly he made me feel safe and listened to
