Tooth-Colored Fillings in South Burlington
Our natural-looking composite fillings seamlessly repair cavities while blending with your smile. Unlike traditional metal (amalgam) fillings, tooth-colored fillings are made from a durable composite resin that matches the shade of your natural teeth.
They are strong, beautiful, and bond directly to the tooth structure for a more conservative restoration that preserves more of your healthy tooth.
Advantages of Composite Fillings
Tooth-colored fillings offer several advantages over metal fillings. They blend naturally with your teeth so no one will know you have a filling. The composite material bonds directly to the tooth, which can actually strengthen a weakened tooth.
Less healthy tooth structure needs to be removed compared to metal fillings. They are free of mercury and other metals, making them a popular choice for patients who prefer biocompatible materials. And they can be used to repair chipped, cracked, or worn teeth in addition to filling cavities.
With proper oral hygiene and regular checkups at Green Mountain Dental, composite fillings can provide reliable, long-lasting protection that keeps your smile looking and feeling its best.
Personalized Treatment Planning
No two patients are alike, and neither are their treatment plans. Our dentists take the time to thoroughly evaluate your oral health, discuss your options, and develop a customized approach that addresses your specific concerns while fitting your schedule and budget.
We believe informed patients make the best decisions about their care. That is why we explain every step of the process, answer all your questions, and make sure you feel confident before any treatment begins.
