Cavities and other types of mild dental damage are common occurrences. Fortunately, these issues can normally be easily overcome using tooth-colored fillings.
Dr. Christopher Wong and Dr. Bettina Tong's tooth-colored cosmetic dentistry restorations can help you achieve a beautiful, youthful smile that looks completely natural. Not only will you look beautiful, but your tooth-colored composite fillings are less likely to show wear or cause teeth to erode.
Here’s what you need to know about Composite Fillings:
A composite filling is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore decayed teeth. The CedarNorth Dental team also use composite fillings to make cosmetic improvements to patients’ smiles by changing the color of the teeth or reshaping teeth where needed.
Composite fillings offer more in the way of aesthetics because the shade matches your existing teeth - an issue of special concern for visible teeth or front teeth. They also are a strong option as they are chemically bonded to the tooth structure. Composite fillings also offer versatility. They can solve many dental issues such as tooth decay, composite fillings as well as chipped, broken or worn teeth. Another advantage of composite fillings that, in most cases, is a larger portion of the existing tooth structure can be salvaged when removing decay and preparing space for the filling.
