Cosmetic Dentistry
We often recommend composite fillings in Milpitas because they provide a durable, natural-looking solution that protects your oral health while preserving your smile.
Natural Appearance
Made from a blend of resin and glass particles, these fillings can be precisely matched to the color of your natural teeth. This makes them nearly invisible, especially for teeth that are visible when you smile or speak. Unlike traditional amalgam fillings, composite restorations do not leave dark spots, so you can maintain a bright, natural-looking smile.
Strength and Tooth Preservation
Composite fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, which helps reinforce the tooth and reduce the risk of fractures. Because the bonding process requires less removal of healthy tooth enamel than amalgam fillings, more of your natural tooth is preserved.
Durability and Versatility
Modern composite materials are strong and durable, making them suitable for both small and larger cavities. They can withstand everyday chewing forces while providing a smooth and polished finish that resists staining. Composite fillings can also be used to repair minor chips or gaps, providing both cosmetic benefits and restoring dental function.
Mercury-Free
Composite fillings are mercury-free, which makes them a safer and more environmentally friendly choice. They also allow dentists to perform minimally invasive procedures.
