Tooth-Coloured Fillings in Gwalior
Cavities happen, but treatment doesn't have to show. At Dental Tonic, Gwalior, Dr. Rashmi Sukhwani uses high-quality tooth-coloured fillings that repair your tooth gently while keeping your smile looking completely natural.
Modern composite fillings blend seamlessly with your teeth — no dark patches, no visible repairs.
What Are Tooth-Coloured Fillings?
Tooth-coloured fillings are made from composite resin — a strong, tooth-like material that matches your natural tooth shade perfectly. They restore teeth damaged by cavities, chips, or cracks while looking completely invisible.
Unlike old metal fillings, composite fillings bond tightly to your tooth and preserve more of your natural tooth structure.
Who Needs Tooth-Coloured Fillings?
✓ Honest Guidance: Very large cavities may need a crown for better strength. We'll always recommend what protects your tooth long-term.
How the Procedure Works
The area is numbed with gentle anesthesia so you stay comfortable. The damaged part of the tooth is cleaned, then the composite material is placed in layers and hardened with a special light. Finally, we shape and polish it to feel natural.
⏰ Quick Process: Usually takes just 20–30 minutes per tooth. Most patients feel only mild pressure, not pain.

Cost of Tooth-Coloured Fillings in Gwalior
The cost depends on the size of the cavity and number of tooth surfaces involved. Composite fillings are slightly more expensive than metal ones due to superior material quality and precise technique required.
