Fillings

Fillings

Dental fillings address small to moderate cavities, preventing further complications and the need for more invasive treatments like root canals or crowns.

By scheduling regular checkups every six months to detect those cavities early and promptly treating them in their initial stages, we aim to preserve the natural structure of your tooth, ensuring minimal disruption to your oral health.

i

Recall visits

Recall appointments every 6 months to confirm the health and integrity of your fillings and intervene at the right time once a problem is identified.

Procedures

Composite Fillings

Dental composite fillings are a popular choice for treating cavities, especially in visible areas, due to their natural appearance. Indications for composite fillings include small to moderate-sized cavities and cosmetic improvements.

The material, a blend of resin and fine glass particles, comes in multiple shades to match everyone’s unique tooth color for a seamless blend. The procedure involves removing decay, preparing the tooth, and layering the composite material, which is then cured with a special light.

This versatile and aesthetically pleasing option provides durable, functional, and visually appealing results, making it a preferred choice for many dental restorations.
