The composite resin itself is a combination of fine particles of glass, acrylic, and trace metals.

When you visit us during your semi-annual checkups and cleanings, you may have a cavity that needs to be filled in order to prevent further damage. We’ll most likely suggest a tooth-colored filling because they offer a variety of benefits and blend nicely with your smile. Typically, we won’t numb the area unless there’s significant decay.

We’ll prep the tooth by applying a primer and a special agent so the filling material chemically bonds with your tooth. After that, we’ll place the composite resin inside of your tooth and sculpt it to complete the natural shape. We’ll then harden the resin using a special light. After that, we’ll check your bite to make sure it’s even and make any necessary adjustments. After a quick smoothing and polishing, your smile will be looking and feeling great!
