Tooth-colored fillings are not only visually appealing but also durable. Composite resins are designed to bond directly to the tooth structure, providing added strength and support. This bond helps the filling stay in place and reduces the risk of future decay around the filling. The material is...
Probing firmly around margins of fillings and in suspected fissures (Fig. 5.4B). Possible additional diagnoses, with signs and symptoms resembling the cracked tooth syndrome, may include occlusal abrasion resulting in exposed dentine or a cracked filling. However, these can be readily detected visual...
