What Are Dental Fillings?

Dental fillings repair teeth damaged by decay, minor fractures, or wear. After removing the damaged portion of the tooth, we use a tooth-colored composite resin to fill the space and restore its natural shape and function.

Unlike older silver fillings, today’s composite materials bond directly to the tooth and match your natural color. Fillings are a fast, minimally invasive treatment that helps prevent the need for larger restorations like dental crowns.

How Do Tooth-Colored Fillings Work?

Your visit begins with digital diagnostics and a gentle exam to identify the affected area. After comfortably numbing the tooth, Dr. Khuu removes the decayed portion and carefully shapes the cavity to hold the filling securely.

We then apply a bonded composite resin, sculpt it to fit your bite, and harden it with a curing light. The result is smooth, functional, and nearly invisible—restoring strength and sealing out bacteria.

Tooth-colored fillings are often used in combination with preventive care like routine cleanings and early decay detection.
