Cavities, one of the most common dental problems, develop when bacteria attack your enamel. In the past, cavities were treated with an amalgam material, which is a mixture of different metals like mercury or silver. We now know that amalgam fillings don't bond well with enamel, and mercury can be hazardous to your general health. At Concerned Dental Care, our New York City dentists use tooth-colored fillings made from a composite resin to fill cavities and protect the tooth. We can also remove old metal fillings and replace them with composite resin fillings for a more reliable and attractive cavity treatment. For more information about tooth-colored fillings, contact one of our New York area locations to schedule an exam.

Dental fillings typically seal the tooth after decay has been cleaned out by one of our dental team members. Composite resin is a useful material that may be used to correct other problems with your teeth, including chips or excessive wear on the enamel by bruxism (teeth grinding). Since the composite resin is colored to match your teeth, tooth-colored fillings may be used on both the front and back teeth for a seamless finish. Additionally. if you have amalgam fillings, we can take them out and re-do them with composite resin.

I’ve had a phobia of the dentist for as long as i could remember. As someone that suffers from an anxiety disorder , coming here was a big step for me. Before i used to be so scared to even go inside , crazy panic attacks and have all the fear raging through my body. Before coming here, i did not visit a dentist for 10+ years , but the ladies at this office completely changed my perspective . They were nothing but beyond excellent . On top of this Dr. Antoinette Siciliano Is nothing but patient and understanding. she made me feel safe which is something that we often overlook at in the health field. Besides having such great traits, her staff is an example of how great of a leader she is, and i hope everyone has the same amazing experience as i do every-time i pass by. Thank you again to the entire team ! 10/10

And no pain.  Thank you all for the great treatment.

Getting a dental filling at Concerned Dental Care is usually a quick treatment. First, the treatment area will be numbed to help you feel more comfortable. If you have dental anxieties or fears, other sedation methods can be discussed to help keep you relaxed during the procedure. As soon as you're ready, the affected enamel can be treated using a special drill that we will select based on where the cavity is located in the tooth and the level of decay. Once the enamel is cleared away and the tooth is disinfected, the cavity will be filled with the composite resin and set with a special light. We will smooth the filling material so it feels comfortable and matches your other teeth.

You should be able to get back to your day after your tooth-colored filling is done, but you may have some sensitivity to cold and hot temperatures for the next few days. You can take over-the-counter pain medication to treat discomfort or inflammation, but you should not experience any major issues. Your tooth-colored filling can be cleaned by following a regular home care routine with daily brushing and flossing. If, after a few days, the filling seems high or uneven, please call our office. When you return for your annual exam, we will assess your filling to decide if it needs to be repaired or replaced.
