The problem of gum recession is a common dental disease that negatively affects people in terms of both aesthetics, dental health and comfort. No one wants to see the roots of the teeth or think twice when consuming food. There are many treatment methods for gum disease.
Can composite fillings be used in gum treatments? Are these fillings really suitable for this treatment? In this blog post, we will talk about these issues and treatment methods of gum problems.
No, composite fillings are not suitable for the treatment of gum recession. Composite bonding is suitable for gum recession treatment. In fact, composite resin is used in composite bonding and composite filling treatments. Although the material used is the same, the treatment methods and intended use are completely different.
Composite fillings are filled with this filling after the decayed parts of the decayed teeth are cleaned. In this way, microbes are prevented from decaying the teeth and the function of the tooth continues to be preserved. As it can be understood, the intended use of composite fillings is much different.
However, since ‘composite fillings for receding gums’ is commonly used among kalk, we will also use this term from time to time.
Composite bonding is used to cover decayed areas on the teeth or to cover small dental defects on the front of the teeth. In the composite bonding process, the resin is applied in a very thin layer to the area where there are dental defects and thus the teeth become more flawless. the dentist chooses the colour of the resin close to the natural colour of the teeth. Thus, only you know that you have composite bonding.
Composite bonding can cover minor damage to the teeth. You can consider veneer treatments for problems such as tooth alignment problems, stains or tooth fractures. Composite bondings can be used for 8-10 years. After a certain period of time, there is likely to be a change in colour due to its spongy structure. However, this does not pose a problem, if the treatment does not go to your temper or if your composite bondings wear out, you can easily replace them. Because there is no damage to your natural teeth during the process.
Gum Receding (Gingival recession) is the loss of the old form of the gums as a result of an infection in the gums and as a result, the upper parts of the teeth are exposed. As a result of gum receding, the teeth appear longer as the thinner tooth roots are exposed. It does not create an aesthetically pleasing appearance and causes tooth sensitivity.
Composite bonding for receiding gums is applied to prevent exactly this appearance, to protect the patient's teeth and to eliminate sensitivity.
Incomplete oral care
Insufficient density of the jaw bone due to prolonged tooth loss

Untreated bruxism
Composite bondings are applied to the long and thin parts of teeth with receding gums. Then composite bonding is dried with laser light to dry quickly and keep its shape smooth. Dentists provide a natural tooth appearance by choosing these resins according to the tooth colour. At the end of the treatment, the patient has a more aesthetic smile and the sensitivity problem ends.
Good news for patients who are afraid of dentists and needles! During composite fillings help receding gums procedure, the patient does not experience any pain. Because there is no need to apply an anaesthetic procedure. It is possible to receive this treatment in a single session at Dentalis Turkey.
Composite bonding procedure is not permanent. However, you can easily use your fillings for 8-10 years.
During composite bonding, this resin is applied to your tooth without resin. Therefore, when your composite bonding is damaged or discoloured, you can easily renew your resins.
The structure of composite bonding is not hard. Therefore, if you eat colourful foods and drinks, the colour of your resins may change.
If you want to preserve your composite bondings and their colour for many years, protect your teeth from trauma and pay due attention to your dental health.
