Tooth-Colored Dental Fillings Can Restore Your Smile

Why Choose Composite Fillings?

Composite fillings are a popular choice for patients looking for a natural-looking, metal-free alternative to traditional amalgam fillings. This option provides several benefits for both the appearance and functionality of your teeth:

  • Aesthetic Appeal: Composite resin closely matches the color of your natural teeth, ensuring your restoration is virtually invisible.
  • Strong and Durable: These fillings bond directly to the tooth, strengthening it and providing long-lasting results.
  • Preservation of Tooth Structure: Unlike other materials, composite resin requires less removal of healthy tooth structure, preserving more of your natural tooth.

With composite fillings, you can maintain a natural-looking smile while protecting your teeth from further decay.

The Composite Filling Process

The procedure for composite fillings is simple and typically requires only one visit. Dr. William Crofts will first remove the decayed portion of the tooth and clean the area. The composite resin is then applied in layers and hardened with a special light. Once the filling is shaped and polished, the result is a smooth, natural-looking restoration that blends seamlessly with the rest of your teeth.

Maintaining Your Fillings

To ensure the longevity of your composite fillings, it is essential to practice good oral hygiene. Regular brushing, flossing and dental checkups will help keep your fillings and overall oral health in excellent condition. Our team is committed to providing personalized care, ensuring your fillings last for years to come.
