FILLINGS

Gone are the days of old silver fillings. With modern dentistry we offer white, tooth colored fillings called composite fillings. These fillings provide several key benefits compared to silver fillings.

• COSMETIC

  Composite fillings match your teeth so you have no unsightly gray spots.

• LESS INVASIVE

  Because composite fillings are bonded, less of the tooth has to be removed to place a composite filling.

• SENSITIVE

  Composites transfer less temperature to the sensitive nerve inside the tooth reducing the risk of sensitivity to hot and cold food and drink.

• STRESS

  Composite fillings are more giving — they allow for more evenly distributed biting pressure. This reduces the risk of possible tooth fractures.
