Whether you have a cavity or need to repair a damaged tooth, our team is here to offer effective solutions that blend seamlessly with your natural smile.

Composite Fillings: Composite fillings are a popular choice for restoring teeth affected by decay or minor fractures. Made from a tooth-colored resin, these fillings are carefully matched to the shade of your natural teeth, ensuring a discreet and aesthetic result. Unlike traditional amalgam fillings, composite fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, providing additional support and minimizing the need for extensive tooth removal.

Inlays and Onlays: Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations used to repair teeth with moderate decay or damage that is too extensive for a filling but not severe enough to require a crown. Inlays fit within the cusps of a tooth, while onlays cover one or more cusps. Both are crafted from durable materials such as porcelain or composite resin, offering a natural-looking and long-lasting solution.

The Process:

Consultation: Our team will assess your dental needs and determine the most suitable treatment.
Tooth Preparation: The affected area is cleaned and prepared to receive the restoration.
Impressions: We take precise impressions of your tooth to create a custom inlay or onlay.
Temporary Restoration: A temporary filling or restoration may be placed while your inlay or onlay is being fabricated.
Final Placement: Once ready, your inlay or onlay is securely bonded to your tooth, and any final adjustments are made.

We prioritize your comfort and satisfaction. Our composite fillings, inlays, and onlays are designed to restore the function of your teeth while maintaining a natural and attractive appearance. If you’re in need of a filling or a more substantial restoration, please contact us to schedule a consultation. Let us help you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile with our advanced restorative treatments.
