Spotlight on Composite Fillings

Sometimes, proper dental care in San Jose includes restorations in addition to dental hygiene and visits to the dentist’s office. Fillings help to address tooth decay and refresh your smile, and there are a few different kinds that can be used. Watch this video to shine the spotlight on composite fillings.

Out of the different types of fillings available, composite tends to be the top choice. This is because composite fillings can be made to match your natural teeth, so they won’t look out of place. Your dentist can ensure that your new restoration fits right in with your natural tooth enamel, seamlessly filling out your smile. This makes composite an especially appropriate choice for cavities and decay in more visible areas of the mouth. While composite fillings are often the way to go, you might have to choose a different material if the cavity is too big to handle with composite.
