If you have tooth decay or damage that requires treatment, River Harmony Dental is here to help! Decay or damage is most often seen in the form of a cavity. Cavities must be treated, or they can worsen or potentially lead to a root canal or extraction. The most common solution to treat a cavity is with a dental filling. While fillings are a great option because they blend in seamlessly with the rest of your teeth and can restore the function and shape of your teeth without anyone even noticing. Let River Harmony Dental help restore your damaged or decayed teeth, with white fillings!
Your Cochrane Choice for White Fillings!
What is a White Filling?
A cavity is a decayed area of the tooth that has developed into a hole in the tooth. Cavities should be filled immediately to prevent the cavity from growing and the decay from spreading. A White Filling is a composite resin material that is used to fill a cavity. The material is colour-matched to blend in seamlessly with the rest of your tooth enamel. Highly durable and long-lasting, white fillings can be placed to match the unique colour and shape of your existing teeth, making them virtually undetectable in your mouth. Furthermore, they can be placed in just one appointment, making them convenient for those with busy schedules.
Benefits of White Fillings
- Virtually undetectable. Aesthetic results can be achieved due to the ability to blend different shades of white filling material to match the natural remaining tooth structure
- The white filing material bonds directly to remaining tooth structure, reducing instances of future breakage and allowing the filling to help insulate the tooth from temperature changes
- Extremely durable; with proper oral hygiene, they can last up to 5 years
- Work with even the smallest dental cavity, and are much safer than old-fashioned silver, mercury, or amalgam fillings
- Can be used in order to build up damaged teeth prior to many restorative dental procedures like dental bridges or dental crowns
- Affordable
