The natural appearance and strength of your teeth can be restored with dental fillings. Dental fillings are created using composite resin which matches the color of your teeth naturally. This enables you to keep your natural smile and they are practically unnoticeable.
What Are Dental Fillings?
Dental fillings are a type of dental restoration used to treat cavities and small holes in a tooth from decay. Additionally, dental fillings can be utilized to alter the contour of teeth or fill in spaces between them.
Composite fillings are less intrusive and can be finished in only one visit compared to traditional dental restorations including amalgam, gold fillings, and crowns. These restorations are an improved variant of conventional silver restorations.
The Benefits Of Dental Fillings
The advantages of dental fillings for patients are numerous. They are visually appealing, are completed in less than an hour and can save the tooth from needing a crown or possibly a root canal.
Quick and easy
Dental fillings are a quick and easy treatment to give your teeth their natural appearance again. There is no need for several visits, the entire treatment can be finished in one visit. Dental fillings are made of composite resin which is pliable and enables easy molding into the required shape and size to be aesthetically perfect.
Natural Appearance
Dental fillings are a great option for restoring the natural appearance of your smile. They not only offer a robust and long-lasting treatment for cavities, but they also mold in perfectly with your natural tooth structure. When inserted into the tooth, you almost can’t even tell it’s there allowing you to keep your teeth’s natural color without anyone recognizing that you’ve had dental work done.
Long lasting
Dental fillings are a fantastic option to save a tooth from further decay. With good oral care and upkeep, the composite materials utilized in these fillings can last up to ten years. Dental fillings are the effective way to retore a tooths strength and natural appearance before needing a crown or possibly even a root canal done.
Safe and natural
Dental fillings are created from composite resin free from any harmful materials as opposed to conventional fillings (silver amalgam), which include mercury. For people who are worried about the potential health hazards linked to amalgam fillings, this makes them a very safe option.
Affordable
Dental fillings can be finished in just one visit. Dental fillings are constructed of composite resin, they take less time to prepare and are less intrusive than other restorations, making them a cost-effective option for minor tooth decay. This is why the importance of regular cleanings and exams make it possible to spot minor decay and take care of this treatment before the decay digs deeper to need a crown or root canal to save the tooth.
How Is A Dental Filling Inserted?
Placing a dental filling is a quick and painless treatment. First, the tooth decay will be removed from the tooth enamel by our dentist. Following the removal of the decay, the tooth region will be cleaned and shaped to accommodate the composite material. The prepared region is next covered with the tooth colored filling material which is finally solidified with a blue light. The filling will then be polished to give it a natural appearance and feel.
Maintaining Your Dental Fillings
Practicing good oral health will play a large factor in the longevity of your dental fillings. The following advice will assist you in maintaining your dental fillings:
- Regular brushing and flossing will assist to avoid plaque accumulation around the filling.
- Avoid eating things that are hard or sticky since they can harm the filling material.
- Frequent dental cleanings and exams to make sure your filling is in good shape.

I am a 62-year-old man retired on Social Security disability. My teeth was very bad my opinion I had low self-esteem because of my teeth I am on a limited income, so I really can’t spend money like that doing my search on Instagram I bumped into this bright smiles office. I called 23 times and hung up because I was afraid to hear how much what to bring but a girl by the name of Dawn kept calling me back and I answered the last time and she spoke to me and I explained to her my problem that I have Humana and she stated give me the number I’ll call you back , she called me back and said Mr. Aleman come in quickly because you have good insurance and we would love to help you I went into the office. Everybody in the office were unbelievably great even the owner who is there they make me feel so welcome. I felt like a millionaire, and they were taking care of me using the money from the insurance. Unbelievable the doctor that took care of me. She was a sweetest sugar.
