marybethallen • November 1, 2020

Gone are the days when restoring a decayed tooth meant sacrificing the appearance of your smile. With modern tooth fillings, treating a cavity won’t leave a dark spot in your mouth for all the world to see.

Composite fillings are matched to your tooth’s natural color so seamlessly, even you could eventually get to the point where you can’t easily spot which tooth had the cavity in the first place.

Watch this American Dental Association video to hear more about these modern tooth fillings and the difference they can make for both your dental health and your smile’s appearance.
