Many of the patients that visit my office with cavities are nervous. They want to know how the filling will affect their teeth both during and after the procedure. Fillings no longer have to be made from the less aesthetically pleasing metal amalgam material. I offer tooth colored fillings that match the natural shade of the tooth, blending in with the rest of your smile. Here’s a few of the advantages:
- · Tooth colored fillings don’t conduct heat like metal does. Patients are less likely to be sensitive to temperature changes.
- · It is a less invasive filling, requiring less tooth modification. More of the natural tooth structure can be left in your mouth.
- · It hardens faster than metal, making it easier for chewing and decreasing your risk of damage.
- · They aren’t inherently noticeable when smiling, talking, or chewing.
With tooth colored fillings, you no longer need to be worried about the results. I make sure that the procedure is comfortable for patients and they are left with a smile that is healthy and beautiful.
