What are the benefits of tooth-colored dental fillings?

Tooth-colored dental fillings offer many benefits to patients. They can be made to match the exact color of a patient’s teeth so that they do not stand out. They also do not require as much of the healthy part of the tooth to be removed before they can be placed. Some patients are concerned about using silver fillings that may contain harmful metals. With tooth-colored fillings, you can rest assured that they will look great and be completely safe for your smile!

How can I know if I need a dental filling?

It’s not always obvious to patients when they need a restorative dental service like a dental filling. If you’ve noticed that a certain tooth is aching, feels particularly sensitive, or has developed black or brown spots on it, that may be an indication that decay is affecting the tooth, and you will want to schedule a visit with our team at your earliest convenience. The best way to have potential issues diagnosed and treated as quickly as possible is to visit our office regularly for routine dental exams and X-rays.

How long do dental fillings last?

Tooth-colored dental fillings last approximately ten years on average. Patients who treat their teeth and dental restorations well by practicing great oral hygiene, visiting their primary dental care provider regularly, and avoiding chewing on things like ice and hard candy can expect their dental restorations to last for a long time before they need to be replaced. During your regular visits, our team will examine your teeth as well as any fillings you have and let you know when we believe you should have your filling(s) replaced.
