There are several reasons why your teeth may need to be filled. Whether you have a small chip, tooth decay, or exposed sensitive dentin, addressing these issues is crucial for your oral health.

When tooth decay sets in,

it's essential to promptly remove the decay and fill the affected tooth.

If left untreated,

the decay can spread, leading to further complications such as root canal treatment or even tooth extraction.

In some cases, tooth decay may occur in areas that are not immediately visible.

To prevent this, we highly recommend regular flossing and maintaining your routine check-ups.

At our office, we offer tooth-colored fillings, providing a fantastic solution that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. These fillings are expertly shaped to ensure a harmonious appearance. While they may not be as durable as silver fillings, we typically do not recommend replacing an old silver filling unless it is damaged or compromised

Rest assured, the process of tooth filling is fast and virtually painless. We ensure your complete comfort with the use of effective numbing techniques
