What Are Composite Fillings?
A composite filling, also known as tooth-colored filling, is a dental procedure that involves filling cavities with a resin material that matches the color of your natural teeth. This type of filling is a popular alternative to traditional metal fillings, as it provides a more natural and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Composite fillings are also durable and can last for many years with proper care.
When Do You Need Composite Filling?
If you experience tooth pain, sensitivity, or notice visible pits or holes in your teeth, you may have a cavity. Cavities are caused by a buildup of plaque and bacteria on the teeth, which can erode the tooth’s enamel and cause decay. If left untreated, cavities can cause pain, infection, and even tooth loss.
During your regular dental check-up, our experienced team can detect and diagnose cavities early, allowing us to recommend the best treatment options for your unique needs. If we determine that composite filling is the best option for your cavity, we will take you through the process and answer all of your questions.
