Cavities weaken teeth and can create a not-so-good-looking smile. It is only natural that you would want a natural-looking restoration that would both make the tooth healthy again and look good. That is why here at Maiden Lane Dental in New York, NY, we offer white fillings to our patients.
White fillings are made of a composite resin that is matched to the color of your tooth. This allows the fillings to look completely natural and blend right into your smile. The silver amalgam fillings of the past did the job of strengthening the tooth and making it healthy again, however, they tend to be unsightly. They are dark and can make the teeth look unhealthy.
White fillings are placed just as fillings have always been placed. First, the decayed tooth tissue is removed. Then, the composite resin chosen to match your teeth is placed into the cavity and smoothed over. The resin is hardened and then reshaped and smoothed over to allow a proper bite. Just like that, your smile is healthy again and still looking great!
If you suspect you have a cavity, schedule an appointment with Maiden Lane Dental for a natural-looking restoration. To schedule in our New York, NY office, call us at (212) 509-4585 or visit our website, www.maidenlanedental.com.
