Old metal fillings can darken, weaken, and even crack the tooth around them over time. We replace them — and treat new cavities — with tooth-colored composite fillings that blend seamlessly into your smile, usually completed in a single visit.
Composite resin is shaded to match your natural enamel, so a filling on a visible tooth doesn’t stand out the way a dark amalgam filling does. It also bonds directly to the tooth structure rather than simply filling a cavity, which means less healthy tooth needs to be removed to place it.
We make every visit smooth and stress free. Here's what you can expect when you visit Glen Allen Dentistry.
We’ll begin with a thorough examination, discuss your concerns, and learn more about your oral health and goals.
Based on your needs, we’ll explain our findings and recommend the appropriate treatment options, including what to expect from each.
Once your plan is established, our team will provide your treatment with careful attention to your comfort and overall experience.
We’ll check your progress and provide guidance to help maintain your oral health and protect your results.
New patients are always welcome. Call us or request a time and we'll confirm within one business day.
