What is a Composite Filling?
A composite tooth filling is a means to restore an area of a tooth that has been compromised by decay or structural damage. A composite filling is a tooth-colored filling that provides the durability and resistance needed to withstand pressure from constant habits, such as chewing. Most patients choose to be treated with composite fillings as they look more natural. Dr. Keyser will remove the existing decay, condition, medicate the remaining tooth structure, and fill the tooth to bring it back to its healthy tooth structure.
How Does It Work?
During this process, our highly trained staff will provide a local anesthetic, or numbness, to your infected tooth and surrounding teeth to minimize discomfort. We promise to make your experience as comfortable and easy as possible. After your procedure, we recommend avoiding drinking hot or cold liquids and eating on the side of your mouth where the procedure has taken place. However, it is important to continue to follow your daily oral health regimen by continuing to brush, floor, and visit the Keyser Dentistry office for routine follow-ups.
