Dental Fillings
Worried about cavities? Fillings help to protect your teeth from further damage or decay.
During your consultation at Dental Care Associates, we’ll evaluate your teeth and any cavities to determine if a filling is necessary. We’ll also evaluate your medical and dental health for any risk factors that might lead to tooth decay or future cavities.
If a tooth is weakened from decay, wear, or cracks, a filling may be necessary to maintain the health of your tooth, prevent additional damage, and keep your smile healthy. We offer options for restorative materials, including composite resin and amalgam.
» What is a Composite Restoration?
Composite restorations are natural looking, tooth colored fillings and are bonded to the teeth.
» What is an Amalgam Restoration?
Amalgam restorations are beneficial for areas of the mouth where moisture cannot be controlled, and they are typically more cost-effective.
