Fillings

When you think of cavity fillings, do you think of obvious metals making their presence readily known? While these fillings are quite effective as restoratives, the look of traditional fillings is not always ideal. Fortunately, advances in dental fillings have led to a number of more natural-looking general dentistry options suitable for fillings in more easily visible areas of the tooth surface.

Tooth Colored Fillings

Materials used in tooth-colored fillings tend to be either high-tech plastic compounds or ceramic. These materials are so closely matched to the natural tooth surface that they can be invisible and are often used to fill cavities which can sometimes form in front teeth. Depending upon the extent of tooth decay and the orientation of cavities in back teeth, tooth-colored fillings may also be a suitable option for back teeth.

Natural Color Dental Fillings

While natural color dental fillings are almost always preferred by patients to more obvious metal options, they’re not always the best choice for a dental restoration. Teeth which bear a substantial chewing load and those with a less suitable amount of structure remaining as a result of decay may not be ideal candidates for natural color dental fillings.

Our skilled dentists have a wealth of experience with not only traditional fillings, but also the most advanced in next-generation tooth-colored fillings. We’ll discuss all of your options for fillings, including natural color dental fillings, before the application of any dental restorative.

Contact us today to learn more about today’s tooth-colored fillings, and to schedule a consultation. We’ll help you decide whether traditional or natural color dental fillings are best for your situation, along with choosing between indirect or direct fillings. Let us make your cavities a thing of the past, often with undetectable fillings designed to mimic the natural tooth surface.

  • The whole process is amazing! You don't sit in the waiting room for very long until somebody comes in to get you. And to my surprise The same lady that clean to my teeth the last time cleaned my teeth this time and she actually remembered me! She was super sweet and very gentle and was able to give me great feedback on what I need to do for the health of my teeth. When the dentist came in he also was very gentle and very thorough looking at my teeth and letting me know the best products to use on my teeth as far as tooth paste and mouthwash. Everything always seems very organized to the time you check in until the time you leave. Is it weird that I can actually say I kind of enjoyed my experience at the dentist? Lol

  • My insurance changed and I was also looking on changing dentist. I received a very thorough cleaning and check up. I finally was told about some things happening to my teeth that my old dentist office never told me about. Probably should have changed sooner. Would recommend this office to anyone. Very Happy

  • Broke a chunk of my back molar off. They were able to fit me in that day. I am super sensitive in the mouth and did not want to come. Dr. Green and her assistant Mirna were wonderful. They explained everything before and during the procedure. No pain!! They did a wonderful job drilling out the old filling, building up my tooth and placing a temporary crown. If I wanted them to stop for any reason, I just raised my finger and they both stopped immediately! Super gentle and patient! They also didn't try to get me to do extra procedures I didn't need or purchase extra stuff. Oh and the front office staff is great too! Super friendly and helpful!

  • Again had my teeth cleaned and more by the creme-de-la creme wonderful hygienist Careme, from the identical last name of the French chef "caremal" - the sweet , there may be some possible puns above. But seriously, she's the best hygienist I've ever had the good fortune to encounter, and I'm rather long of tooth (but don't give my exact age) a long line of such both in NYC and Atlanta. Gentle, cheerful and beyond thorough since it's evident that she's checking for things no other hygienist I've had has ever checked for. One needs a word beyond "superlative" to describe her and her work. I was also fortunate to have my teeth checked by Dr. John Klevansky, He finds the problems without painfully poking around, and it's always a good experience to be with him, and I've had a lot of work done by him.
