Why Choose Nawrocki Dental of Cocoa Beach for Tooth-Colored Fillings?

What are Tooth-Colored Fillings Made From?

Just like dental bonding, which works to repair teeth with cosmetic chips or cracks, tooth-colored fillings make use of composite resin. This high-quality material is made up of a combination of glass and plastic, allowing it to be perfectly blended to the same shade as your natural teeth. Once this material is bonded into place, you won’t even be able to tell the difference between your natural teeth and the material!

Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings vs. Amalgam Fillings

Thanks to additional research on the properties of composite resin, we now know that we don’t need to resort to silver fillings just to obtain the most effective fillings possible. In fact, there are many added benefits of using composite resin other than aesthetic reasons.

How Are Tooth-Colored Fillings Placed?

Because of their simplicity, tooth-colored fillings only take a single visit to place and very little preparation to do so. Once the area surrounding the tooth in question is properly numbed and all decay is removed, Dr. Nawrocki will clean the tooth and place the resin within it. After being sculpted into shape and polished, the area is hardened with a curing light.

Caring For Your Dental Fillings

In the beginning, your tooth will feel some minor sensitivity to hot and cold. Eventually, this sensitivity should go away, and you can resume your daily activities, including:

Some patients may need to use waxed or monofilament floss in order to prevent it from snagging on their restored teeth. Make sure to always use a soft-bristled toothbrush to avoid prematurely wearing down enamel.
