Composite dental fillings are a great solution for filling in cavities and are made from a special composite that works to strengthen the tooth while looking completely natural. Our dentists can give you a filling to help prevent further tooth decay at Rock Canyon Dentistry.
Our composite is made to look and feel like natural enamel and to provide structural integrity to the remaining tooth. The material conforms to the shape of the cavity so that there is not much requirement for drilling. It can be healthier than metal fillings and reduces the risk of future cracks or chips. The composite provides a better seal around the cavity, providing insulation from food temperatures. It can be used to treat cavities that are too small for an amalgam (metal) filling and can be repaired or replaced without having to be removed from the tooth if necessary.
You will be able to keep your natural smile for longer while enjoying a completely natural appearance. Call us at 801-373-6362 if you think you may need a composite dental filling in Provo, Utah. Dr. Joseph Kayne or Dr. John Wilson will be happy to fill in your cavity and prolong your oral health.
