There are several cases where aesthetic metal-free fillings can be indicated:
During your consultation at our Los Angeles offices, Smile Studio Los Angeles Dentists will engage in a thorough discussion with you regarding the most suitable options for restoring your teeth. It should be noted that, similar to natural teeth and other dental restorations, composite fillings are not considered to be completely permanent. Nevertheless, they exhibit remarkable durability, and with proper care, aesthetic metal-free fillings can provide many years of reliable service, ensuring a long-lasting and visually appealing smile.
To restore a tooth, the damaged portion of the tooth needs to be removed, creating an opening that will be filled with composite filling material. This process ensures the tooth’s structural integrity and helps restore its functionality and appearance.
Aesthetic metal-free fillings are typically placed in a single appointment. The procedure begins with the numbing of the tooth and adjacent gum area. Once the area is numb, Smile Studio Los Angeles Dentists will skillfully remove any decay and shape the resulting opening to prepare it for the filling material.
The opening will be thoroughly cleaned and prepared to ensure optimal adhesion of the new filling. If the decay has reached near the tooth’s nerve, a specialized medication may be applied for nerve protection.
After the preparation, the aesthetic metal-free bonding filling will be precisely placed and shaped to restore your tooth to its original form and function. The filling will be carefully polished and blended to seamlessly match the color and texture of your natural tooth.
When a composite filling is initially placed, it is common for the tooth to experience sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures. However, as your tooth adjusts to the new filling, these sensations will gradually diminish.
When you receive a new aesthetic metal-free filling, Smile Studio Los Angeles Dentists will provide you with guidelines on how to take care of your filling. By maintaining good eating habits, practicing proper oral hygiene, and attending regular dental check-ups, you can help prolong the lifespan of your new filling.
