For optimum treatment results, we use the most up-to-date technology, techniques, and materials. For decay and cavity repair, we offer tooth-colored restorations or fillings that are close to your natural teeth. To learn more about tooth-colored restorations and to see if they are right for you, speak with one of our staff members.
Today’s innovations in dentistry allow us to use composite resin, often known as tooth-colored fillings, to cure cavities and rectify a wide range of flaws. These cosmetic restorations can assist to restore the shape, size, and color of teeth, as well as fill gaps, repair chipped teeth, and make teeth appear straighter and more even. They are extremely strong and long-lasting, providing you with long-term effects. Previously, Amalgam restorations, which are made up of a mixture of metals containing mercury, were the only filling materials available to treat tooth decay and cavities. While amalgam is known for its strength and durability, its metallic silver tone makes it look unsightly.
Tooth-colored fillings are advantageous in more ways than one. They closely match the color and appearance of your teeth, giving you beautiful results. Even if you decide to scrutinize the area, you won’t be able to tell if there is a difference between the restoration and your natural tooth enamel.
They are free of metals, which are known to induce tooth sensitivity and allergy. Your restorations adhere directly to the tooth surfaces, strengthening the structure, providing strength and durability, and preventing decay and cavities in the future. Unlike amalgam fillings, which expand and contract with temperature fluctuations, potentially causing teeth cracks and fractures over time, composite fillings safeguard your teeth. Your restorations adhere directly to the tooth surfaces, strengthening the structure, providing strength and durability, and preventing decay and cavities in the future. Modern tooth-colored fillings can heal front teeth or molars that have been subjected to intense chewing forces and last as long as amalgam fillings. Amalgam fillings are more prone to wear and tear than tooth-colored restorations. Tooth-colored fillings need less tooth structure removal than metal fillings, making them a more conservative option for tooth repair. Fillings that are tooth-colored are extremely durable and are also simple to fix if they are broken or chipped. The special curing light makes the composite resin substance solidify in a few seconds, as opposed to days, as a few other filler materials do. Tooth-colored restorations do not need to be placed at the gum line, which is a healthier option for the gums in the long run. Tooth-colored restorations can help prevent future tooth decay since the resin used in tooth-colored restorations contains fluoride.
