Hello , ur treatment s correct n it has done good... Don worry .. Looking at ur pics , can say u need to maintain ur oral hygiene well... Brush properly..don let the food accumulation on ur tooth for a longer time...the only problem comes up here ll b a colour change of the filling n even at its border with time ... So, Avoid coloured drinks even tea, coffee , soft drinks etc .. N if u can't avoid immediately rinse ur mouth after having them. N avoid biting on the hard stuff directly from that tooth , just to avoid chipping off of the filling...
Durability of anterior composite fillings purely depends on ur maintenance...
