Fillings restore areas of a tooth affected by decay or minor damage. Our practice uses tooth-colored composite restorations and discusses material choices with you based on the location and needs of the tooth.
A restoration that fits your tooth
We examine the tooth and explain the extent of the damage before recommending a filling. For a tooth-colored restoration, the material is shaped and polished to blend with your smile and adjusted to your bite.
Choosing the right material
The size and location of a cavity, your bite, and your preferences all matter. If a tooth needs more support than a filling can provide, we may discuss an onlay or crown.
Looking after your restoration
Regular dental visits allow us to check your fillings and the teeth around them. Let us know if you notice a change in your bite, sensitivity, or a rough edge.
Your care is individual. An examination helps us explain the options, benefits, and considerations that apply to you.
