Composite Fillings
A composite filling is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore decayed teeth or cavities. Composite fillings are typically used to treat small to mid-size cavities. The composite filling material is soft when initially applied, then harden with a curing light.
The Mint Method
At Mint Dental OC, we use material with high durability and resistance to cracking for composite fillings. Our fillings are able to withstand the daily wear and tear from chewing. Our fillings are the “white fillings” and provide a beautiful cosmetic finish that will match the color of your existing teeth. In addition to color-matching, our highly skilled Dentist will contour, smooth, and buff your composite filling, giving a natural looking finish. Composite fillings can be used on either front or back teeth so you will always be able to smile comfortably and freely following our treatment.
