Cosmetic Fillings

With today's technological advances, modern cosmetic fillings, which resemble the natural color of your teeth, can restore your smile and give your teeth a new look.

The majority of people get fillings at some point in their lives. There are several different reasons a person would get a filling such as: for aesthetic reasons, to repair chipped, worn and cracked teeth, or to treat and prevent the spread of tooth decay. Traditional silver fillings that are visible when you open your mouth or smile are a thing of the past. In today's dental world, we make the filling using a special synthetic material that matches the look and feel of a natural tooth, which is then inserted and bonded in the mouth. With proper care, cosmetic fillings could last up to ten years.

Advantages of Cosmetic Fillings

Cosmetic fillings have a long expected lifespan and may last up to ten years.
The color of a cosmetic filling matches the natural color of your teeth giving you flawless, natural-looking results.
We can use cosmetic fillings to change the appearance of your teeth. We can change the size, shape, or coloration, close gaps, improve the evenness or straightness, and repair chips.
We can replace your old silver fillings with modern, natural looking cosmetic fillings.
Cosmetic fillings bond to the chemical structure of your teeth.
Cosmetic fillings do not take a long time to harden. They can harden in just a few seconds.
The cosmetic filling will result in little or no pain and sensitivity.

The cosmetic filing restores the original strength of your teeth by up to 95%.
You do not need to make multiple dental visits for your cosmetic fillings. In just a single visit we complete the treatment quickly, so you can go home on the same day.
Cosmetic fillings are an is excellent alternative for patients with metal allergies. They can restore your teeth without the risk of allergic reactions.
Cosmetic fillings allow us to remove only the tooth decay, leaving more healthy tooth material behind.
Cosmetic fillings are more affordable than traditional fillings in the long-run since the procedure is finished very quickly. They also last a long time so you may not need a new filling for up to ten years.

We start the procedure by getting rid of all tooth decay. We may apply anesthetic if the decay has progressed beneath the enamel of your tooth. We then clean the affected tooth carefully and apply a primer to the area that needs restoration, dentin, and any open pores. A bonding agent is then applied and the filling material inserted. Next we shape the cosmetic filling to resemble your natural tooth as much as possible. A curing light is then used to harden it. Our service is not complete until we ensure that the filling gives you a complete smile and a uniform bite.

It was a great first visit. I hadn't been to the dentist in a while and they could definitely tell. But they didn't shame me for it like I have seen in the past. They seem friendly and want to make the visit as quick and painless as possible.
