Whether your teeth are strong or weak, they slowly wear down over the years. Constant use leads them to lose bits of their enamel, putting you at risk of cavities, chips, and cracks. The good news is that Advanced Dental Treatment Center has tooth-colored fillings in Greenfield! When applied to your damaged pearly whites, their materials will quickly repair your grin. Learn more about them (and what they do) by reading below or call us soon.
Dental fillings are substances that fix a patient’s damaged or decayed teeth. They’re made from varying materials and “fill” the holes – cavities – left by tooth decay, protecting your smile from harm. The result is that each filling makes a tooth sturdier, healthier, and stronger.
Given the points above, tooth-colored fillings are ones that match your smile’s shade. They use a composite resin to “blend in” with your adjacent teeth and defend the treatment site. In doing so, they enhance your oral health and your looks at once.
With today’s technology, getting a tooth-colored filling doesn’t take much. Most dentists can place one in an hour-long dental visit that’s nice and smooth.
A given tooth-colored filling treatment will involve three crucial steps. For the first one, we’ll numb your mouth so the treatment doesn’t cause aches.
