Our types of fillings

Composite (Tooth-Colored) Fillings

Our most popular option, these fillings are made from durable, tooth-colored resin that bonds directly to your tooth. They’re ideal for small to medium-sized cavities and offer a natural, nearly invisible result.

Amalgam (Silver) Fillings

These traditional metal fillings are long-lasting and strong, often used for molars that endure heavy chewing pressure. They’re a dependable option for back teeth.

Not sure which is right for you? We’ll help you decide based on your oral health, aesthetic goals, and budget.

Our approach to fillings

Getting a dental filling is quick, easy, and often completed in just one visit:

We diagnose the problem with an exam and digital x-rays.

Your tooth is numbed and gently cleaned to remove decay.

We place your filling using composite resin or amalgam, depending on your preference.

We shape and polish the filling for a smooth, comfortable fit.

FAQs about dental fillings

How do I know if I need a filling?

You may need a filling if you have a cavity, cracked tooth, or worn-down filling. Common signs include sensitivity, pain when chewing, or visible holes in a tooth.

Are composite fillings as durable as silver?

Yes! Today’s composite materials are strong, reliable, and ideal for most patients. They bond to the tooth structure and preserve more of your natural tooth.

Is it safe to remove old amalgam fillings?

Yes. Our team follows safety protocols to remove silver fillings with minimal exposure to mercury vapor. We’ll ensure your comfort and protection throughout the process.

Do fillings hurt?

We use local anesthetic to numb the area, and the process is quick and comfortable. Most patients feel nothing during treatment.
