Composite Fillings

Dental care should be as natural, comfortable, and personalized as possible. That’s why we offer composite fillings, also called tooth-colored fillings, to restore teeth that have been damaged by decay, wear, or minor injury. We treat the whole person, so every visit is designed to leave you feeling cared for and confident in your smile.

Are you dealing with a small cavity, a chipped tooth, or an older filling that needs replacement? Composite fillings provide a strong, natural-looking solution that blends seamlessly with your smile.

When Are Composite Fillings Needed?

Knowing when a composite filling is the right solution can help you protect your teeth and avoid bigger problems later. Your dentist in Broomfield, CO, may recommend tooth-colored fillings for a variety of situations, including:

• Cavities and Tooth Decay — Composite fillings restore areas damaged by decay, stopping it from spreading deeper into the tooth and preventing more serious dental issues.
• Chipped or Cracked Teeth — Even small chips or cracks can cause discomfort or worsen over time. Composite material repairs these imperfections while maintaining a natural look.
• Replacing Previous or Metal Fillings — Previous silver fillings can be replaced with tooth-colored fillings for a more seamless appearance and stronger bond to your tooth.
• Cosmetic Adjustments — Composite fillings can also help correct small gaps, worn edges, or minor unevenness, giving your smile a polished and healthy appearance.

Addressing these concerns early helps you preserve your natural teeth and maintain a smile that looks and feels great.

Getting a composite filling at Main Street Dental Studio is straightforward, gentle, and patient-focused: 

• Thorough Exam and Consultation — Your dentist reviews your oral health and explains the best options for restoring your tooth, answering all your questions along the way.
• Gentle Tooth Preparation — Only the damaged or decayed portion of your tooth is removed, preserving as much healthy enamel as possible.
• Precision Application and Shaping — Composite resin is applied in layers, carefully sculpted to match the shape and natural contours of your tooth.
• Polishing for Comfort and Appearance — The filling is polished to a smooth finish, ensuring a comfortable bite and a seamless, natural look.

Because we treat the whole person, we make every step as comfortable as possible, ensuring you feel relaxed and confident during your visit.

Caring for your smile can extend the lifespan of your composite fillings:

• Maintain regular brushing and flossing to extend the life of your fillings.
• Avoid chewing hard or very sticky objects that could damage the filling. This includes pen caps, ice, and taffy. 
• Attend regular dental checkups to ensure fillings stay in optimal condition.
