Tooth-colored fillings

Cavities happen. Fillings that announce themselves don't have to. Natural-looking repairs that blend right in.
WHAT IT IS

Fillings that disappear into your smile.

Tooth-colored composite fillings repair cavities and small chips using a durable resin matched to your tooth's natural shade. Unlike old silver amalgam fillings, composite bonds directly to the tooth, which means less drilling, a stronger repair, and a result that disappears into your smile.

If you have older metal fillings you'd like replaced, that's an easy conversation to have at your next visit.

Why Perry Dental

The difference between a good filling and a great one is time and care: matching the shade, shaping the surface, dialing in the bite. Because visits here are never rushed, that's the level of attention every filling gets. Small thing, big difference.

The process

How it works

  1. Gentle numbing
    Dr. Jack numbs the area thoroughly before anything starts, and there are no lectures about the cavity.
  2. The decay is removed
    The cavity is cleaned out, keeping as much healthy tooth as possible.
  3. Shaped and polished
    The composite is shaped and polished so your bite feels completely normal. Most fillings are finished in a single visit.
