Why choose white fillings at Putney Dental & Implant Centre?

Beautiful, strong and mercury-free restorations

At Putney Dental & Implant Centre, we understand how important your smile is to your confidence. Our skilled dentists use advanced composite materials to create white fillings that look completely natural while strengthening your teeth.

Looking to replace silver fillings with natural alternatives?

White fillings that blend seamlessly with your smile

Our team at Putney Dental & Implant Centre is well aware of the significance that your smile holds for you. The appearance of silver amalgam fillings is not appealing. We provide our patients with the choice of white fillings that are designed to match the colour of their natural teeth, so allowing you to have a smile that is both beautiful and natural.

What are white fillings made from?

Safe, durable materials that look and feel natural

White fillings are made from a composite resin that is coloured to match your natural teeth. The filling is bonded to your tooth and built up over several layers, each of which is set using a high-intensity light.

This method allows our dentists to preserve more of your healthy tooth structure, making it stronger and more durable. With a long lifespan of 8-12 years, your white filling will be colour-matched to your natural teeth, ensuring it blends seamlessly with your smile.

White fillings are mercury-free, help prevent tooth sensitivity and can even be used to reshape uneven or chipped teeth.

Avi Singh

Absolutely thrilled with my experience at the clinic with Dr. Shervin and Simran! From the moment I walked in, Simran made me feel welcome and at ease with her warm, professional manner. Dr. Shervin was incredibly thorough, explaining each step of the treatment with clarity and care. The results were outstanding—my teeth look and feel amazing. Their attention to detail, gentle approach, and genuine commitment to patient comfort truly set them apart. Highly recommend this team for anyone seeking top-tier dental care!

Rebecca Pakenham-Walsh

Always very impressed with this dental practice. We’ve used Dr Mojgan Shirkhani for many years. She has monitored my children’s teeth since they were young and has always done a great job. I used her for Invisalign also and she was great and always explained everything so clearly. Would definitely recommend this dental practice.

K Gal

My son and I, have been going to this dental practice for years now and very happy with the care we receive there. We have both needed some pretty major restorative treatment and on both occasions have felt we were well informed about the treatment, had questions answered and trusted the dentists treating us. When I had a couple of issues afterwards my dentist was always available for me even after hours and at weekends going the extra mile to ensure I knew that help was available. I am more than happy to recommend this practice to anyone needing a new dentist.

Briar Wood

As someone who was very loyal to my dentist, I was nervous to see a new one after moving to London, but Olivia has been absolutely amazing. She’s thorough, explains everything she’s doing, and somehow made a root canal a breeze. As someone who used to get dental anxiety, I would highly recommend anyone visit!
