Why Choose Us for Fillings?

We take a personalized approach to dental fillings, selecting the best material based on your needs, preferences, and dental health. Our experienced dentists use advanced techniques and high-quality materials to ensure long-lasting, durable results that blend seamlessly with your natural smile.

Types of Dental Fillings We Offer

1. Composite Fillings

Composite fillings are a popular choice for those seeking a natural-looking solution. Made from a tooth-colored resin, composite fillings can be easily molded to match the contours of your teeth, providing a seamless repair that blends in with your natural tooth color. These fillings are ideal for visible areas and offer both aesthetic appeal and durability.

2. Silver (Amalgam) Fillings

Silver fillings, also known as amalgam fillings, are made from a combination of metals, including silver, mercury, and tin. These fillings are highly durable and are often used for back teeth that experience heavy chewing pressure. Though less aesthetically pleasing than composite fillings, silver fillings are known for their strength and longevity.

3. Ceramic Fillings

Ceramic fillings are made from durable, tooth-colored materials such as porcelain, making them an excellent option for those who want a natural appearance. Ceramic fillings are resistant to staining and offer great durability, especially for larger fillings or areas that need more strength.

4. Resin Ionomer Fillings

Resin ionomer fillings are made from a blend of glass and acrylic resins. These fillings are ideal for patients who need a less invasive solution for cavities that are less visible. They release fluoride, which can help prevent further tooth decay, making them a good option for children’s teeth or those at higher risk for cavities.

The Filling Procedure

Our filling procedure is quick, comfortable, and minimally invasive. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Consultation & Diagnosis: We start by evaluating your teeth and determining the extent of the decay or damage. X-rays may be taken to provide a complete picture of your oral health.
2. Preparation: The decayed portion of the tooth is removed, and the area is cleaned and prepared for the filling material.
3. Filling Placement: The chosen filling material is carefully placed and molded to match the natural contours of your tooth.
4. Polishing: Once the filling is in place, we polish it to ensure a smooth, comfortable finish that blends in with the rest of your smile.

Benefits of Dental Fillings

Why Filling Treatment Matters

Ignoring cavities or tooth decay can lead to further damage, pain, and more costly treatments. By addressing the issue early with fillings, you can prevent future dental complications, protect your tooth from additional decay, and maintain a healthy, functional smile.
