With locations in Crestview, Pensacola and Mary Esther, Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics offers composite fillings to those local residents who are looking for a way to improve the health and appearance of their teeth without metal fillings.
What Are Composite Fillings?
When decay occurs in a tooth, it’s important to take steps right away to address the issue. A filling is used to treat a decaying tooth and halt the spread of further tooth decay. Composite fillings are made of a natural resin composite material, as opposed to metal fillings. By using a resin composite material, you can fill in your cavity and restore your tooth’s strength and stability without compromising the appearance of your smile.
Benefits of Composite Fillings
It’s important to treat cavities quickly and thoroughly, as stopping the spread of dental decay is crucial to maintaining the health of your teeth. For the perfection of your smile, many of our patients prefer the option of composite fillings because they:
- provide a much more natural look to the tooth
- create an invisible barrier against further tooth decay
- provide structure and support to replace missing dental support brought on by chips or cracks in your tooth’s enamel
Because composite, tooth-colored fillings are much more durable and aesthetically appealing, many patients report back they feel and look younger with composite fillings.
What Is the Procedure for Applying Composite Fillings?
Once the decay has been eliminated or the area around a chip or crack in a tooth has been sufficiently cleared, the filling will be placed, shaped, and polished for a perfectly natural look and feel. Among patients of Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics, we have found that composite fillings are one of the most popular choices because they can be very closely matched to the color of your existing teeth and are very durable.
How Much Do Composite Fillings Cost?
Composite fillings are a very common dental procedure, and as a result, they are generally covered by dental insurance, so check with your provider to learn more. If you do not have dental insurance, we offer convenient financing options through CareCredit® and OrthoBanc®which empowers you to set up a convenient payment plan that can help to cover the cost of your new composite fillings.
