Composite Fillings
A filling isn’t just about treating a cavity; it’s about restoring trust in your smile. At Atlantic Dental Partners, we believe that every small dental decision matters. That’s why we use composite (tooth-colored) fillings, a modern, biocompatible solution designed to protect your teeth without compromising their appearance or feel.
Gone are the days of metal mouths and silver reminders of dental work. With fillings, your restoration becomes invisible, your tooth regains strength, and you walk out of our office with nothing but confidence.
The Modern Alternative to Metal: Why Composite Matters
- Stand out visually
- Expand over time, risking fractures
- Contain mercury and other metals
- Don’t bond to the natural tooth
- Are outdated in both material and method
Dental fillings, on the other hand, are:
- Mercury-free and biocompatible
- Bonded directly to the tooth, sealing out bacteria
- Matched to your natural tooth color
- Durable and flexible, reducing stress on the tooth
- Minimally invasive, preserving more of your healthy enamel
You don’t have to choose between strong and subtle. With dental fillings, you get both.
What Makes Dental Fillings So Unique at Atlantic Dental Partners?
- Custom-tinted to match your exact enamel shade
- Layered with precision for optimal strength and aesthetics
- Shaped artistically to restore your tooth’s natural contour
- Placed under magnification and isolation for a perfect bond
- Finished with high-gloss polishing to mimic natural shine
Signs You May Need a Dental Filling
Cavities aren’t always painful, but they’re always progressive.
Here’s how to know when a dental filling may be right for you:
- You’ve noticed sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweets
- You have visible brown, dark, or white spots on your teeth
- Food frequently gets stuck between specific teeth
- You’ve chipped a tooth and want a natural-looking repair
- You want to replace old silver fillings with something safer and more aesthetic
Our Dental Filling Process
We begin by conducting a comprehensive digital scan to identify decay and evaluate your tooth’s structure. Using this information, we select a composite material shade that seamlessly matches your natural teeth for a flawless finish.
After applying local anesthesia for your comfort, we carefully remove the decayed area while preserving as much of the healthy tooth structure as possible. This ensures that your tooth retains maximum strength and integrity for long-lasting results.
We apply the composite material in layers, curing each layer with a specialized light to ensure a strong bond and long-lasting durability. This technique ensures that the filling remains stable and resilient under regular bite forces.
Once the filling is in place, we carefully sculpt it to mimic your tooth’s natural shape. Afterward, we polish the composite for a smooth, shiny finish, ensuring it blends seamlessly with the rest of your smile.
We perform a bite check to ensure your restoration aligns perfectly with your natural bite. Any final adjustments are made to guarantee comfort, function, and a flawless fit before you leave our office with your refreshed smile.
