Hi,
A drilling instrument is used for removing the composite filling which removes the filling part only and doesn’t affect the natural tooth structure at all. Once removed re-filling is a must to avoid food lodgement and ensure smooth surface. No solvent or chemical agent is used for removal.

no solvent is used to dissolve the material. Air rotor will be used to remove the material and create new bevel for new restoration
