Have cavities been troubling you for a while now? They are one of the most prevalent dental conditions that can significantly affect your oral health and smile aesthetics. Hence getting cavities treated promptly with dental fillings can make the difference between saving and losing a natural tooth.
At our office, Roshan Emam D.D.S.in Palo Alto, California, we proudly offer composite fillings for our patients, to address cavities or replace metal dental work.
Composites are tooth-colored fillings that repair cavities and considerably improve the appearance of teeth. They are composed of composite resins that bond to the tooth and seal the damaged areas effectively. Composite fillings can be color-matched with your existing natural teeth and blend in seamlessly with your smile.
Ideal candidates for composite fillings should have a few things in common, including:
Composite fillings placement can be completed in a single visit to our dental practice. Dr. Emam will screen your mouth to assess the severity of the cavities. The decay and tartar deposits present in the cavity and its surrounding areas will be eliminated by ultrasonic scaling. Then a jet of water is used to wash away the debris and bacteria.
Next, Dr. Emam will prepare the filling material by matching it with the exact color and texture of the tooth. It will be placed on the cavity, shaped accordingly, and hardened using a curing light. The excess filling material is removed to ensure a correct fit and bite, and finally, the tooth is polished to enhance aesthetics. In addition, we will give you aftercare instructions to ensure the fillings last for a long time.
