Composite Fillings

At Restore Dental Studio in Mount Prospect, Illinois, we specialize in composite fillings, a modern solution for restoring teeth affected by decay or damage. Our commitment is to provide restorations that are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth.

What are Composite Fillings? Composite fillings, also known as tooth-colored fillings, are made of a durable, plastic and glass mixture. They are used to repair a tooth affected by decay, cracks, fractures, or wear. Unlike traditional amalgam fillings, composite fillings can be closely matched to the color of your existing teeth, providing a more natural appearance.

The Benefits of Composite Fillings: Our composite fillings offer several advantages, including:

• Aesthetic Appeal: The tooth-colored material makes these fillings virtually invisible, maintaining the natural beauty of your smile.
• Durability: Composite fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, providing support and withstanding moderate pressure from the constant stress of chewing.
• Tooth Preservation: This type of filling requires less tooth structure to be removed compared with amalgam fillings, helping to preserve more of your natural tooth.
• Versatility: Composite fillings are not only used for cavities but can also repair chipped, broken, or worn teeth.

The Composite Filling Process: The procedure for placing a composite filling can typically be completed in one visit. The process involves removing the decayed or affected portion of the tooth, cleaning the area, and then layering the composite material in the cavity. Each layer is hardened with a special light, and the final filling is shaped and polished to match the rest of your tooth, ensuring a comfortable and natural fit.

Personalized Dental Care: Dr. Josephine Puleo and our team take great care to ensure that your composite filling not only restores your tooth’s health but also enhances its appearance. We provide personalized attention to detail, ensuring the best possible results for your dental health and aesthetics.

A Commitment to Your Oral Health: At Restore Dental Studio, we are dedicated to using materials and techniques that benefit your overall oral health and wellbeing. Our composite fillings are a testament to this commitment, offering a safe, effective, and attractive solution for dental restorations.
