Composite dental tooth fillings can be adhesively held in place or bonded. Because they can be bonded to teeth, composite fillings allow for more conservative preparations where less healthy tooth structure is removed. This often results in smaller fillings than that of amalgam (silver fillings), and they look more natural. The tooth-colored material is cured with a special light and the surface is shaped and polished to match the tooth. This makes rendering the final restoration virtually undetectable to the eye and provides a natural feeling in your mouth.
