Cavities and minor tooth damage can compromise your oral health and affect the appearance of your smile. We provide composite dental fillings to restore the strength and integrity of your teeth while maintaining a natural look. Composite fillings provide a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution for repairing decay and minor fractures.

What Are Composite Dental Fillings?

Composite fillings are made from a tooth-colored resin material that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. They are used to repair teeth affected by cavities, cracks or minor wear. These fillings offer a strong and discreet alternative to traditional metal fillings. Our dentist may recommend a composite filling if you:

  • Have a cavity that needs to be treated
  • Want a filling that matches the natural color of your teeth
  • Need to replace an old or worn-out metal filling
  • Have minor chips or cracks that require restoration

Because composite material bonds directly to the tooth structure, it provides additional support and helps prevent further damage.

 

The Benefits of Composite Fillings

Composite fillings offer several advantages that enhance both the health and appearance of your smile, including:

  • Natural appearance – Matches the color of your teeth for a seamless restoration
  • Strong and durable – Provides long-lasting protection against wear and decay
  • Bonding strength – Adheres directly to the tooth for added support
  • Minimally invasive – Requires less removal of natural tooth structure compared to metal fillings
  • Mercury-free solution – A safer and more biocompatible alternative to traditional amalgam fillings
