Older patients likely remember the days when silver-colored amalgam fillings were the service of choice for correcting dental damage caused by cavities – in fact, you may still have a few in your smile! While this service was reliable enough, it did have some significant pitfalls. Teeth were likely to weaken over time because of the amalgam addition, and temperature-related sensitivity was also a serious problem – not to mention the cosmetic sacrifices involved.
At Bartusiak Dental Care of Washington, our dentists are happy to now offer a much-improved alternative: tooth-colored fillings from our Washington, PA dental office. Tooth-colored fillings are made from composite resin, which is a modern, flexible material that comes in a wide variety of lifelike shades. These shades can match your tooth enamel and give you a much better look. Contact our Washington, PA, dental office today if you’d like to learn more about tooth-colored fillings or if you’re ready to schedule a first appointment.
In most cases, the placement of a new, tooth-colored filling will only require one appointment of the patient’s time. After numbing the patient’s mouth, we’ll take the time to remove the decayed portions of the tooth while leaving as much healthy structure in place as possible. Then, after a thorough cleansing, the composite resin material will be sculpted into place, shaped, and polished so that it feels smooth against the tongue.
