What Are Tooth-Colored Fillings?
Cavities, one of the most common oral health problems we encounter at Suite 905, develop when oral bacteria start to break down the tooth enamel. Tooth-colored fillings help preserve the health and beauty of your smile by sealing off cavities, restoring the tooth, and avoiding the need for more complex treatments in the future. Unlike traditional amalgam fillings, which are made from a combination of metals like silver or mercury, our tooth-colored fillings at Suite 905 are made from biomimetic materials designed to match the natural shade and structure of your teeth for a seamless smile. By bonding directly to the enamel, composite resin dental fillings provide crucial strength and stability for damaged teeth. Learn more about the benefits of tooth-colored fillings and get the quality dental care you need by scheduling a consultation with Dr. Svetlana Orit Faradjewa or Dr. Sheila Faradjewa at our practice in New York, NY.
How Do Composite Filling Treatments Work?
At Suite 905, we strive to make dental appointments easy and comfortable for our patients. Your tooth-colored filling appointment will start with a thorough cleaning and exam to assess the location and size of the cavity. After this, we'll inject a numbing solution into the area to limit any sensation you experience during the treatment. For patients with severe dental anxiety, our practice also offers nitrous oxide sedation to help you keep calm. Once you're prepared, we'll carefully remove the damaged enamel using a dental drill before filling the cavity with composite resin. After that, we'll dry the resin using a special light and polish the filling so it matches your natural teeth.
