Composite Fillings Newport News, VA
A composite (tooth colored) filling is used to repair a tooth that is affected by decay, cracks, and fractures. The decayed or affected portion of the tooth will be removed and then filled with a composite.
You and our dentist can discuss the best options for restoring your teeth. Composite fillings are the most widely used today in Newport News. They are tooth-colored and closely matched to the color of existing teeth, and are more aesthetically suited for use on front teeth or more visible areas of the mouth. Because composite resin fillings are bonded into place, they provide a more conservative approach to restoring teeth, allowing for more healthy tooth structure to be maintained.
As with most dental restorations, these are not permanent and may someday have to be replaced, yet It is very durable giving you a long lasting, beautiful smile.
Reasons for composite fillings:
Chipped teeth.
Closing space between two teeth.
Cracked or broken teeth
Decayed teeth.
Worn teeth.
