Dental Fillings

We are committed to restoring your smile and oral health with high-quality, natural-looking composite fillings. Our skilled team uses the latest materials and techniques to ensure your fillings are durable, effective, and blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

What are Composite Dental Fillings?

Composite dental fillings are made from a tooth-colored resin material that is designed to match the natural color of your teeth. These fillings are used to repair cavities, chipped or broken teeth, and other forms of tooth damage. Composite fillings are a popular choice because they provide a strong, long-lasting solution while maintaining the aesthetics of your smile.

The Benefits of Composite Dental Fillings

Composite fillings offer several advantages over traditional amalgam (metal) fillings:

  • Natural Appearance: The tooth-colored resin blends seamlessly with your natural teeth, making the fillings virtually invisible.
  • Durability: Composite fillings are strong and can withstand the pressures of chewing, providing a long-lasting solution.
  • Bonding Strength: Composite material bonds directly to the tooth structure, which can help to strengthen the tooth and prevent further damage.
  • Versatility: Composite fillings can be used to repair not only cavities but also chipped, broken, or worn teeth.
  • Mercury-Free: Composite fillings do not contain mercury, making them a safer and more environmentally friendly option.

The Composite Filling Procedure

At Middletown Dental Services, we ensure that the composite filling process is comfortable and efficient. Here’s what you can expect:

  1. Consultation: Our dentist will examine your teeth, discuss your needs, and determine if a composite filling is the right solution for you.
  2. Preparation: The area around the affected tooth is numbed to ensure a pain-free experience. The decayed or damaged portion of the tooth is then carefully removed.
  3. Filling Application: The tooth-colored composite resin is applied in layers. Each layer is cured (hardened) using a special light.
  4. Shaping and Polishing: Once the filling is in place, it is shaped to match the contours of your natural tooth and then polished to ensure a smooth, natural appearance.
