Composite dental fillings are a modern solution for restoring teeth affected by decay, cracks or fractures, offering both strength and aesthetics. Dr. Anil Dwivedi and our team specialize in composite fillings, using tooth-colored materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. This not only restores the integrity of your tooth but also maintains its natural appearance, unlike traditional metal fillings. We are committed to providing restorations that not only function perfectly but also look beautiful.
The procedure for placing a composite filling is minimally invasive and is typically completed in a single visit. After removing the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth, we carefully apply the composite material in layers, using a specialized light to harden each layer. This method allows for a tight bond with the tooth structure, restoring its original strength and function. Finally, the filling is shaped and polished to match the rest of your tooth, ensuring a smooth and natural feel.
Benefits of composite dental fillings include:
- Aesthetically pleasing results that match your natural tooth color
- Preservation of more of the natural tooth structure compared to amalgam fillings
- A strong bond that supports the tooth’s existing structure and prevents breakage
- Reduced sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures
