Benefits of Composite Fillings
- Tooth-colored material blends naturally with your smile
- Mercury-free — a safe alternative to traditional amalgam fillings
- Bonds directly to tooth structure for added strength
- Requires less removal of healthy tooth compared to amalgam
- Resistant to fracture under normal chewing forces
- Can be repaired easily if damaged over time
What to Expect
Dr. Vahedi will numb the area around the affected tooth to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. The decayed portion of the tooth is carefully removed, and the cavity is cleaned and prepared. The composite resin is applied in layers, with each layer hardened using a special curing light.
Once the filling is shaped to match your natural bite, Dr. Vahedi polishes it for a smooth, natural finish. The entire process typically takes 30 to 60 minutes per filling, and you can resume eating and drinking shortly after your appointment.
Results
Composite fillings restore the function and appearance of your tooth so seamlessly that most people cannot tell the difference. They are durable, long-lasting and help prevent further decay by sealing the tooth tightly.
