If you have tooth decay that has caused a cavity (hole) in your tooth, then you are likely to benefit from a cosmetic filling. However, decay is not the only reason you may need a filling. Other reasons include: cracked or broken teeth, teeth that are worn from habits such as nail-biting, as well as tooth grinding. When you schedule a professional dental cleaning with one of our doctors at Bridge Smiles Dental Group P.A., he or she will check for these problems, and decide whether a filling is right for you.
The type of fillings we provide at the office is called composite resin, or tooth-colored (white) filling. This type of filling provides good durability and resistance to fracture in small-to-mid-size fillings that need to withstand moderate pressure from the constant stress of chewing. They can be used on both the front or back teeth and supply the patient with a more natural looking appearance.
If you think you may benefit from white fillings, please give us a call. To learn more about the services we provide at our practice, visit www.bridgesmilesdental.com for more information.
