Answer

Yes we can. These white fillings are resistant to breakage and less sensitive to hot and cold substances; they are also reliable and esthetically pleasing. The new technologies allow a better color match to your teeth and reduce post-operative pain. We also use other materials, such as gold and porcelain.
