Consultation
We examine your oral health and determine if a composite filling is right for you.
Tooth-colored fillings designed to repair cavities, preserve natural tooth structure, and blend beautifully with your smile.
Composite fillings are made from durable, tooth-colored resin that blends with natural teeth. The decayed tissue is carefully removed, and the filling is placed to restore tooth integrity and help prevent further damage.
Composite resin is selected to blend with surrounding tooth color.
The filling bonds directly to the tooth surface for added support.
The restoration is shaped and polished to match your natural tooth contours.
This direct bond can strengthen the overall tooth structure and help reduce the risk of future fractures compared with traditional amalgam fillings.
