Understanding Tooth-Colored Fillings for Kids
At Hamilton Lakes Dentistry, we offer tooth-colored fillings that are a fantastic solution for treating cavities in children. These fillings are made from composite resin, a material that closely mimics the appearance of natural teeth. Not only does this keep the fillings discreet, but it also ensures that your child’s smile remains naturally beautiful.
What Parents Should Know:
The process of placing a tooth-colored filling is straightforward. In a single visit, your child can receive effective care. First, we numb the area to ensure they feel no discomfort. Then, we gently remove the decayed part of the tooth and clean the area thoroughly. Our dentists then apply the composite resin in layers, using a special light to harden it. The final step involves shaping and polishing the filling to ensure a comfortable bite and natural appearance.
The Benefits:
Tooth-colored fillings are not only aesthetic but also avoid the use of metals. They are perfect for kids with metal sensitivities. These fillings require less enamel removal, which means more of your child’s natural tooth is preserved. Another perk is that these fillings do not expand or contract with temperature changes, reducing the chance of sensitivity.
Safety and Comfort:
One notable advantage of choosing tooth-colored fillings is that they are mercury-free, which prioritizes your child’s health and safety. Our gentle approach ensures that procedures are stress-free for both you and your little one.
We believe every child should grow up with strong, healthy teeth, and our compassionate team aims to deliver just that with the best tools and skills. A child’s joy of showing off a bright smile is one of a kind!
