Are composite fillings better than silver ones?

Composite fillings are generally preferred because they look natural, bond better to the tooth, and don't contain mercury.

How long do tooth-colored fillings last?

Typically, composite fillings last between 5 to 7 years, but with excellent care, they can last over a decade.

Does getting a filling hurt?

No, we use local anesthesia to ensure the area is completely numb before we begin.

Can I eat right after getting a filling?

Yes, because the composite material is fully cured with a light during the procedure, you can eat normally as soon as the numbness wears off.

Can I replace my old silver fillings?

Yes, many patients choose to replace old amalgam fillings with composite resin for a more natural-looking smile.
