Dental fillings are a common restorative procedure used to repair teeth affected by decay or damage. When a cavity forms, the dentist carefully removes the decayed portion of the tooth and fills the space with a specialized material that restores strength and function. These fillings not only help prevent further deterioration but also blend seamlessly with natural teeth to maintain an aesthetically pleasing smile. Beyond treating cavities, dental fillings are also used to fix chipped or cracked teeth, ensuring durability and long-term protection.
At our office, we place composite fillings. They are made from resin materials, and they match the natural color of teeth and provide a seamless finish. They are widely preferred over other filling types such as amalgam. However they can stain over time, much like natural enamel.
At Havana Street Dental, our team helps patients choose the best filling option based on their dental needs and aesthetic preferences. Whether you're seeking a filling for cavity treatment or cosmetic enhancement, we ensure high-quality care tailored to your smile. Contact us today to learn more about our restorative options.
