Composite Fillings in Stuart Florida

When treating a cavity, the dentist will remove the decayed portion of your tooth and fill it with another substance. This procedure is called a filling. There are multiple options for the material to be used in the filling, the most common of which are composite fillings and amalgam fillings.

When can a composite filling be used for?

A composite filling is also known as a tooth colored filling, since the material used in the filling can be closely matched to the color of your teeth. Composite fillings provide good durability for small to medium cavities, and the procedure typically involves removing less of a tooth than you would during an amalgam filling. They are also particularly well suited for treating front or highly visible teeth because of their natural look.

How its done

After the dentist numbs the area where the filling is to be placed, he will remove any decayed portions. A substance is then applied to help open up the pores of your teeth for a stronger bond, and hardened and cured with a special light. Once this is complete, the filling is applied in thin layers to slowly form the complete filling. After the composite has hardened, the filling will be smoothened and polished to be comfortable and fit your bite.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Went there in so much pain literally tears  feom my tooth and they saw me quick and when I came in the dental assistant who is a guy was so sweet. Very nice and seemed to love his job. Met the dentist. She was amazing to and new right away what I needed. There was another girl there who helped me with figuring out payment and was so helpful and quick and just genuine. You dont find that anymore. But here you will. The kindest sweetest people who know what there doing and have great prices. Unfortunately I dont have dental insurance  but they have other options and its quick easy and affordable.  Not many people can say there looking forward to going to the dentist but now I can. Thank you family dentistry for removing my pain and thank you for making me feel like family. God bless 🫶🫶🙏🙏🙏
