Are you in Need of Composite Fillings?

Commonwealth Prosthodontics is pleased to offer natural-looking, tooth-colored composite fillings as a cosmetic restoration option for patients looking to replace amalgam fillings or who have active decay. Tooth-colored, or composite, fillings keep your teeth looking natural and can enhance your smile. You can even smile without anyone knowing you ever had a cavity or a filling.

Benefits of Tooth Colored Fillings

Composite fillings are strong and made of high-quality material, which is able to withstand the repeated stress of chewing. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, “Dental porcelains easily and efficiently imitate the enamel part of a tooth.” Tooth-colored fillings offer a cosmetic upgrade while maintaining the strength and integrity of your tooth. Additional benefits include:

Durability

Composite fillings are durable and long-lasting. They are made of a resin/ceramic compound material that is highly durable and functional. Composites bond to the tooth to support the remaining tooth structure while helping to prevent breakage and insulating the tooth from excessive temperature changes. The insulative properties of the composite material reduce the risk of cracking and can help prevent future decay.

Commonwealth Prosthodontics in Richmond, Virginia is dedicated to restoring your smile. If you have been diagnosed with a cavity and require a filling, tooth-colored fillings are a great alternative to maintain a beautiful, healthy-looking smile.
