Why Choose Composite Fillings at Uno Dental San Francisco?
Fillings have a long history of use, and traditionally used materials like gold or amalgam. Although these have their benefits, composite fillings are a more popular option because they look like your natural teeth. This means they’re completely undetectable, unlike other materials, and you don’t have to worry about how your smile looks after a filling.
When it comes to fillings, the dentist you choose maters. A board certified dentist can create a customized treatment plan for restoring your teeth’s health and making sure you still feel confident in your smile. Most importantly, you shouldn’t compromise on your comfort during your restorative dentistry process. That’s why we’ll focus on making your filling procedure relaxed, pain-free, and thorough. Dr. Kandar will make sure you know what to expect from your treatment – and how we can help you achieve your smile goals for the long term.
What Can I Expect During Composite Filling Treatment?
Composite fillings begin with a thorough examination of your teeth and the area where some decay has been detected. We’ll take scans so we can precisely target the treatment area. Then, your teeth will be cleaned and made ready. You’ll also be given a local anesthetic in the area once you’re ready. Using specialized technologies, Dr. Kandar will carefully remove the decayed material from your tooth before preparing it for filling. During the composite filling process, it’s important to make sure the teeth remain clean and dry. A tooth-colored filling is placed in layers and cured using a special light before being checked against your bite for any concerns. Finally, you can return home.
How Can I Get the Best Results from My Composite Filling Treatment?
The best way to take care of fillings is by preventing the need for more. This means seeing Dr. Kandar regularly to check for more decay and have your teeth professionally cleaned. At home, you should make sure to brush twice daily and floss once daily, as well as avoiding sugary foods and beverages. If you notice any concerns or sensitivity around your filling, you should make sure to see Dr. Kandar for an appointment. Our team can make sure you get the most out of your restorative treatments for a healthy smile.
