Composite is a resin-based filling material matched precisely to tooth color. After decay is removed it is applied in layers and cured with a special light; most cases are completed in one visit.
It is also used in front-tooth aesthetics (bonding) to repair small chips and close gaps. With good care it lasts for years.
