Composite dental fillings are a popular choice for restoring teeth affected by decay, offering a blend of durability and aesthetics that many patients appreciate. Our practice utilizes the latest dental technologies and materials to ensure your fillings not only restore function but also blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
What Are Composite Fillings?
Composite fillings, also known as tooth-colored fillings, are made from a mixture of plastic and fine glass particles. They are favored for their ability to closely match the color of your natural teeth, making them an excellent choice for visible areas of your mouth.
Benefits of Composite Fillings
Choosing composite fillings at Table Mountain Dental offers several advantages:
- Aesthetics: The shade of composite fillings can be closely matched to your natural tooth color.
- Bonding: Composite fillings bond to the tooth structure, providing additional support to weakened teeth.
- Versatility: They can be used not only for cavities but also for repairing chipped, broken or worn teeth.
- Less Tooth Removal: Less tooth structure needs to be removed compared with amalgam fillings, preserving more of your natural tooth.
The Procedure
- Preparation: Dr. Craig Cardon will remove decay and prepare the tooth.
- Filling: The composite material is then applied in layers and hardened with a special light.
- Polishing: Finally, the filling is shaped and polished to match the rest of the tooth.
