Composite Fillings in Brooklyn, NYC

Kicking out cavities for bright smiles is our specialty! Our friendly team is thrilled to introduce you to the world of composite fillings – a modern solution for restoring your teeth with both efficiency and aesthetics. Let’s dive into what dental fillings are, the signs that you might need them, and our process at North Brooklyn Dental Care.

What are Dental Fillings?

Dental fillings are the unsung heroes of oral health, coming to the rescue when cavities threaten to dampen your smile. At North Brooklyn Dental Care, we use composite fillings, a state-of-the-art material that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. These tooth-colored fillings not only restore your teeth but also maintain the beauty of your smile. Plus, they’re mercury-free for a long-lasting and safe alternative to potentially harmful metal alternatives.

Beyond preventative care, tooth fillings are the simplest resource available to restore teeth and remove harmful decay. A quick trip to our office can get you smiling confidently again and avoid more complex procedures down the road, like dental crowns or root canals.

Telltale Signs You Might Need Dental Fillings

Wondering if you might need dental fillings? Here are a few telltale signs of tooth decay to look out for:

Persistent toothaches
Increased sensitivity to temperature changes
Increased sensitivity to sugary foods and drinks
Visible holes or pits in your teeth
Discoloration or staining on tooth surfaces

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s time to schedule a dental checkup with us in our Brooklyn dental office. Our goal is to catch cavities early and provide efficient and gentle treatment with composite fillings, ensuring your smile stays bright and healthy.

Our Dental Fillings Process

Curious about what to expect during a dental filling procedure at North Brooklyn Dental Care? Our process is designed with your comfort in mind. After ensuring you’re relaxed and at ease, your dentist will remove the decayed portion of the tooth, clean the area thoroughly, and expertly place the composite filling. The result? A restored tooth that blends seamlessly with the rest of your smile. With composite tooth-colored fillings, we can emphasize both effectiveness and aesthetics.

How Long Do Fillings Take?

One of the common questions we receive is, “How long do fillings take?” The good news is that the process is generally quick and efficient. The duration varies based on the size and location of the cavity, but you can typically expect a single filling appointment to last around 30 minutes to an hour. Our team works diligently to ensure your time with us is well-spent, leaving you with a healthier smile without taking you away from your daily life.
