Dentist in White Plains, NY
Dr. Lisha Shrestha may recommend a composite dental filling if your tooth is damaged by cavities or cracking. These tooth-colored restorations are designed to blend in with your smile and give you a beautiful, long-lasting solution. Call Everest Dental PC today to set up an appointment with our dentists and find out more about composite dental fillings in White Plains, New York.
Dental fillings are one of the most common restorative treatments we offer, and while traditional dental fillings have often been made of a silver amalgam material, our office has chosen to provide exclusively tooth-colored fillings. This choice has been made with the long-term oral health of our patients in mind, as composite fillings are better-suited to:
- Bond to your tooth and support its remaining structural integrity
- Reduce the risk of breaking or fracturing in the treated tooth
- Insulate the tooth from fluctuations in temperature due to specific foods or drinks
- Seal off the damaged area to increase the tooth’s resistance to decay or leaks
- Correct small cavities before they grow
- Be easily repaired or replaced in the future if needed
- Avoid potentially unsafe materials, such as mercury or other metals
Our dentists will keep the natural tooth color of your smile in mind when selecting your filling color in order to create natural and healthier-looking results. In most cases, your filling will only take one visit to complete. To learn more or schedule your next visit, call or visit Everest Dental PC today.
