A discreet cavity treatment will ensure that you have no concerns about your appearance or oral health after decay is dealt with. Learning that lifelike treatment is possible can certainly be reassuring. With that said, you should be able to count on treatment to offer both a lifelike appearance and functional support so that you can bite and chew as you always have. Fortunately, this is possible when you receive a composite resin filling at our office. This material is strong enough to provide long-term support after hardening, and it can supply the kind of discreet appearance that lets you stay confident in how you look.
A dental filling is used when a cavity has formed because the harm from decay needs to be permanently addressed. The damage will not heal on its own, so it is important that the restoration can remain in place for the long term. You can feel assured when you learn that you have access to resin fillings that provide cosmetic value. The composite resin material is directly applied to the tooth after decayed tissues are removed. After it is applied, it will adhere to the enamel and harden, creating the stability needed to let you continue putting bite pressure on the tooth.
There are times when a larger cavity will require something other than a dental filling. If you find yourself in this situation, we can use a dental crown that provides lasting stability and protection. These restorations actually surround teeth, which means more preparatory work must take place. It is also important that the crown be just the right shape and size to look natural and avoid causing issues for neighboring teeth.
