Tooth-Colored Fillings

Tooth-Colored Fillings

Natural-looking cavity repairs that blend seamlessly with your smile

Invisible Cavity Repairs

Gone are the days of silver amalgam fillings that stand out in your smile. Today's composite fillings are made from tooth-colored resin that's matched to your natural tooth shade, making them virtually invisible.

At American Dental Group, we use composite fillings for all cavity repairs. They're not only more aesthetically pleasing but also bond directly to your tooth, providing excellent support and requiring less removal of healthy tooth structure.

  • Matched to your tooth color
  • Bond directly to tooth structure
  • Preserve more natural tooth
  • Mercury-free option

The Filling Process

Numbing
We ensure your comfort with local anesthesia before beginning any work.

Decay Removal
The decayed portion of your tooth is carefully removed, preserving as much healthy structure as possible.

Bonding
The tooth is prepared with a bonding agent that helps the composite adhere securely.

Layering
Composite resin is applied in layers, with each layer hardened using a special curing light.

Shaping & Polishing
The filling is shaped to match your bite and polished for a natural look and feel.
