Tooth-colored fillings
Modern composite fillings restore decayed teeth gently — usually in a single visit, with a finish that matches your enamel.
- Most fillings finished in one visit
- Color-matched composite — no silver line
- Numbing options for anxious patients
- Covered by most PPO insurances
What to expect
- 1
Gentle exam
We take a quick look and a small X-ray to confirm the cavity and its depth.
- 2
Numbing
A topical gel goes first, then a precise local — most patients say they only feel pressure.
- 3
Clean the decay
We remove only the damaged tissue and leave as much healthy tooth as possible.
- 4
Bond & shape
Composite is layered, cured with a soft light, and polished so it feels like your own tooth.
- 5
Bite check
We adjust until the bite feels natural before you walk out.
Cost & insurance
Most PPO insurances cover composite fillings as a basic restorative service after deductible. We'll verify your plan before treatment and give you the exact out-of-pocket up front.
Frequently asked
01Are white fillings as strong as silver ones?
Yes — modern composite materials bond to the tooth and are rated for chewing surfaces. Properly placed, they last 7–10 years on average.
02Will it hurt?
We numb the area thoroughly before any drilling. You may feel pressure or vibration, not pain. Tell us at any moment and we'll pause.
03How long does one filling take?
Usually 30–45 minutes per tooth, including numbing time.
04Can I eat after?
Composite is hardened immediately, so you can eat once the numbness wears off (1–2 hours).
