Composite Fillings

Composite fillings offer a modern, aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional metal amalgam restorations. Made from a tooth-colored resin material, they bond directly to the tooth structure, allowing us to preserve more of your natural enamel while restoring full function and appearance.

At Pine Mountain Dental Care, we use composite fillings to treat cavities of all sizes, repair minor chips or fractures, and replace old metal fillings that have worn down or are causing sensitivity. The procedure is straightforward: we gently remove the decayed portion, apply the composite resin in layers, shape it to match your bite, and cure it with a special light for a durable, natural-looking result.

Beyond aesthetics, composite fillings are safe, long-lasting, and thermally stable — meaning they expand and contract less with temperature changes compared to metal. Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how seamless the final result looks. We take pride in the precision of our restorations so that even you may forget which tooth was treated.
