Understanding Modern Dental Restorations

Today’s dental fillings offer more options than ever before. We primarily use tooth-colored composite resin fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. For larger cavities or more extensive damage, we may recommend custom-crafted inlays or onlays, which provide exceptional strength and durability while preserving more of your natural tooth structure.

Think of these restorations as custom puzzle pieces, precisely crafted to fit your unique tooth structure and restore both function and aesthetics.

The Importance of Dental Fillings

Dental fillings are essential for restoring teeth that have been damaged by decay, cracks, or fractures. Without fillings, these issues can worsen over time, which can lead to further decay, infection, and even tooth loss. By filling cavities and repairing cracks, fillings help prevent the spread of decay and preserve the structural integrity of the tooth. Additionally, fillings restore the functionality of the tooth, allowing for comfortable chewing and speaking. With timely intervention and proper dental care, fillings can effectively address dental issues and maintain optimal oral health for the long term.

Dental Fillings FAQs

If you have any questions about dental fillings, we’ve got answers. View all FAQs.

No. We use effective numbing medications so that you don’t feel any discomfort during your treatment. 

A well-maintained dental filling can last 10-20 years with good oral hygiene.

Yes, you can eat and drink normally after a dental filling. The general rule of thumb is to avoid hot or cold food and drinks immediately after.

Plan to brush and floss around all of your teeth, especially the ones with existing dental fillings. This will help prevent recurrent decay from developing around your new restorations. Also, be sure to plan a checkup with our Colton dentist at least twice a year.

  • Composite (White) Fillings: These tooth-colored fillings are the least invasive type of restoration available. The white material bonds closely with your tooth enamel, minimizing how much tooth structure is altered during the restorative process. Because composite is available in a variety of shades, we can select a color that blends in with your natural tooth enamel.
  • Amalgam (Silver) Fillings: Traditional amalgam fillings are best for scenarios involving large cavities or teeth that are difficult to keep dry during the treatment process. They are the least costly option for dental fillings.  However, their silver color can interfere with your smile.
  • Indirect Porcelain Fillings (Inlays/Onlays): Crafted in a dental laboratory, these fillings are made from high-quality ceramic material.

Most dental insurance plans cover fillings and restorations, at least partially. Our team can help you understand your insurance benefits and answer any questions you may have.
