Why Are Your Tooth-Coloured Fillings Turning Yellow?

Untreated tooth decay can lead to dark spots on your teeth, which are cavities. Once a dentist has filled those cavities (using a tooth-coloured composite dental resin), your teeth have been restored. So why, potentially years later, are you developing yellow spots on your teeth? Enamel and Fillings The outer layer of human teeth is made of dental enamel, which is highly mineralised and incredibly strong. However, when this enamel decays, your dentist will fill any cavities with composite resin, which is designed to match the colour of your dental enamel.

About Me

Dealing with Bad Teeth

Hello, my name is Tyler and I live in Melbourne, Australia. I used to have terrible teeth. It was kind of my own fault as I would only brush them once a day and I used to skip dental appointments. However, when I developed a painful toothache, I gave in a visited my dentist. He was shocked by just how bad my teeth had become. I had to have some teeth removed and after I had recovered from the procedure, I decided that I needed to get serious about my oral health. Since then, I have learnt all about dental health care and I want to encourage others to do the same.
