Repair & Support A Weakened Tooth With Tooth-Colored Fillings

At Dentistry at Bridlewood in Ocala, we’re pleased to help our patients protect their smiles with natural-looking white fillings. Also known as tooth-colored or composite resin fillings, this material can be matched to your exact tooth shade and provides reliable support to a tooth damaged by decay.

How are white fillings applied?

Once decay has been removed, layers of composite resin material will be applied to the affected tooth. After each layer is placed, it is hardened with a special curing light. This process continues until the tooth has been completely repaired, and the restoration looks and feels great.

What benefits do white fillings offer?

These fillings provide reliable protection for a tooth damaged by decay. They are also aesthetically pleasing, are less likely to cause patients to experience sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures, and with diligent care, they can last for many years!

Is everyone a candidate for these fillings?

While most patients are likely to be candidates for these fillings, this material may not be suitable for all restorations. If you want to learn more about whether you may benefit from this type of filling, contact us today to arrange a consultation.
