What Are Composite Fillings?
Composite fillings offer a modern solution for repairing cavities and minor tooth damage. Made from a blend of tooth-colored plastic and glass, they seamlessly match your natural teeth for a flawless appearance. Unlike traditional metal fillings, our composite fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, enhancing both strength and durability. This secure bond not only restores function but also helps maintain the integrity of your smile.
Ideal for those seeking discreet and long-lasting dental restoration, composite fillings combine functionality with aesthetics, ensuring a strong, natural-looking solution for your dental needs.
What Are The Different Composite Filling Materials?
Composite fillings are a go-to choice for restoring damaged teeth due to their durability, aesthetics, and ability to bond directly to the tooth. Our fillings are made from a blend of materials, each playing a crucial role in ensuring strength, longevity, and a natural look.
Acrylic Resin- Forms the main structure of the composite filling, provides flexibility, and allows for precise application. Bonds seamlessly to the tooth, ensuring a strong foundation.
Glass Ionomer - Made from a mix of glass and organic acid. It releases fluoride over time, helping prevent future decay. Often used in pediatric dentistry due to its protective benefits.
Quartz or Silica- Tiny glass particles are added to enhance wear resistance. It improves the durability of the filling, making it last longer.
Nano Composites - Incorporates nanotechnology for superior polishability and provides exceptional strength while maintaining a natural appearance. Ideal for both front and back teeth, ensuring a seamless blend with natural enamel.
Each of these materials makes composite fillings a highly effective and aesthetically pleasing choice for dental restorations. Whether for strength, protection, or a natural look, composite fillings offer a well-rounded solution!
What Are The Advantages of Composite Fillings?
- Seamless, Natural Appearance: Say goodbye to noticeable metal fillings! Our tooth-colored composite fillings blend effortlessly with natural teeth for a flawless, confident smile.
- Strong & Durable Bonding: Composite fillings don’t just fill cavities, they reinforce your tooth structure, helping to prevent future damage and keeping your teeth stronger for longer.
- Minimally Invasive: Unlike traditional metal fillings, our composite restorations require less drilling, preserving more of your natural tooth while effectively treating decay.
- Versatile & Reliable: Whether you need to repair a cavity, a chip, or a small crack, composite fillings are an excellent choice for both front and back teeth.
- Comfort & Protection: Sensitive to hot or cold foods? Composite fillings provide superior insulation, reducing discomfort and protecting your teeth from temperature changes.
What Are The Steps of the Composite Filling Procedure?
- Examination & Numbing: Your journey begins with a thorough examination of the affected tooth. We apply a local anesthetic to keep you comfortable, ensuring a completely pain-free experience.
- Removing Decay & Cleaning: Next, we carefully remove the decayed portion of the tooth and meticulously clean the area to eliminate bacteria or debris. This lays the foundation for a healthy, strong restoration.
- Prepping for a Perfect Bond: A special adhesive gel is applied to the cleaned cavity, creating a secure bond between your natural tooth and the composite filling.
- Layering of Composite Resin: We apply the composite resin in multiple layers, expertly shaping each one to match the natural contours of your tooth, restoring both strength and beauty.
- Hardening for Durability: Using advanced LED light technology, we harden each composite layer, ensuring a strong and resilient filling that seamlessly blends with your natural tooth.
- Polishing: Once the filling is securely in place, we carefully polish it to match the natural sheen of your teeth, leaving you with a smooth, flawless result.
How Long Will Composite Fillings Last?
Composite fillings are designed for durability, standing up to the daily demands of chewing and biting. On average, they can last between 5 to 10 years, depending on factors like oral hygiene and dietary habits.
To extend the lifespan of your fillings, brushing, flossing, and routine dental check-ups are essential. At Dennis Dental Care, we use premium materials and advanced techniques to ensure your fillings provide long-lasting protection while blending seamlessly with your natural teeth. With proper care, your composite fillings will keep your smile strong and beautiful for years to come.
