Dental Filling
Treatments used to restore the function, integrity, and morphology of missing tooth structure.
Unlike traditional metal fillings, tooth-colored fillings require minimal amounts of the damaged tooth to be removed for placement. This helps maintain the strength of the tooth and minimizes the likelihood of future breakage.
