Repair Dental Damage With a Natural-Looking Filling

Our gentle, caring team is here to make your tooth filling experience as pleasant as possible. We’ll take the time to explain the procedure, answer your questions, and ensure you feel at ease throughout your visit. When you come in to have your tooth filled, here’s what you can expect:

  • We’ll begin by numbing the area around the affected tooth.
  • Your dentist will remove the decayed part of your tooth.
  • We’ll gently clean the area to prepare it for the filling.
  • We’ll apply the filling material in layers, shaping it to match your tooth.
  • An ultraviolet light will be used to harden the restoration.
  • Finally, we’ll polish the filling for a smooth, natural-looking finish.

We use composite resin for all our dental fillings. This modern material offers several advantages over traditional silver fillings. Composite resin blends in seamlessly with your natural tooth color, so no one will even notice you have a filling. It also bonds directly to your tooth, which means we can preserve more of your natural tooth structure.

We take pride in providing comfortable, efficient care. Our team will make sure you understand each step of the process and are comfortable during your visit. We offer soft pillows, cozy blankets, noise-canceling headphones, and TVs to take your mind off dental care.
