Filling Benefits
Treating a cavity early with a filling protects your tooth from further decay, infection, and more costly treatment, like a crown, down the road. Dr. Enzweiler’s tooth-colored composite fillings restore strength to your tooth while matching the natural color of your smile, so the repair is virtually invisible. Because composite fillings are mercury-free and bond tightly to your enamel, they are both a cosmetic and a durable choice. Fillings are typically completed in a single, comfortable visit, so you can get back to your day with peace of mind and a healthy smile.
Filling Visit Journey
Your filling visit at Vivid Dentistry starts with cleaning and numbing the area, with sedation available if you would like extra comfort. Dr. Enzweiler then gently trims away any damaged or decayed portion of the tooth and cleans and dries the area. Next, she applies a layer of tooth-colored composite resin, shaping and hardening it with a UV light as she fills in the cavity. Before you leave, she checks your bite and makes any final adjustments, so the filling feels natural and comfortable right away.
