Beautiful, healthy teeth with invisible fillings

The most popular dental fillings are tooth-colored composites that mimic the natural appearance of your teeth. They are strong enough to restore the form and function of a chipped or decayed tooth and can treat tiny cavities that are hard to fill using other materials like amalgam. Another advantage of tooth-colored composite fillings is that they are easy to repair. Fillings wear over time and may be damaged with time or due to trauma. Composite fillings can be easily reapplied without having to remove the original filling. 

Tooth-colored fillings near me – what can I expect?

The placement of dental fillings involves a simple procedure that can be completed in a single visit, during which the dentist will clean the tooth and bond the filling material. For decayed teeth, the preparation will involve removing the decay and cleaning the site to avoid trapping bacteria that may erode the tooth after restoration. The site must be kept completely dry and free from saliva.

Are tooth-colored fillings right for me?

There are different types of white fillings, including composite and porcelain:

  • Composites are preferred because they are affordable and do not require much tooth preparation before applying the filling
  • Porcelain fillings provide a more durable restoration but are more expensive; as such, they are primarily used for repairing the back teeth

Dr. Liyan Massaband may recommend porcelain or ceramic onlays and inlays to restore severely damaged teeth due to wear or decay. Please visit us at ConfiDental Beverly Hills to discuss how to restore your damaged teeth. 

Restoring the tooth

Dr. Liyan Massaband then carefully applies adhesive before putting the tooth-colored material in multiple layers to achieve the desired shape and size of the restored tooth. When the final form has been obtained, it is cured using a special light to harden the material.

The whole procedure takes only a few minutes. She will then inform you on how to care for your teeth to maximize the longevity of the restoration. 

Aftercare

After you receive your tooth-colored fillings, you may experience some sensitivity to extreme temperatures. However, this is normal; you can expect it to dissipate after a few days. If this feeling persists, do not hesitate to contact Dr. Massaband, as this could be a sign that something may be wrong. Patients can generally resume their usual activities and oral care after their visit. Once the anesthesia wears off, you can safely chew with your fillings. If, at any point, you notice something out of the ordinary, report this to our office, and we will examine the fillings.
