Stronger, Safer, and More Natural Than Silver Fillings
Unlike traditional silver (amalgam) fillings, composite fillings bond directly to the tooth. This means less drilling, smaller restorations, and a more comfortable experience for your child.
Made from BPA-free resin and reinforced materials, composite fillings are durable enough for chewing and gentle enough for growing smiles. Best of all, they match the natural color of your child’s teeth, so there’s no visible metal or discoloration.

Why Composite Fillings Are a Better Choice for Kids
Our composite, tooth-colored fillings offer more than just a natural look — they’re designed for safety, comfort, and long-term protection. Here’s why more parents are choosing this option for their children:
- Naturally matches your child’s tooth color for a seamless smile
- Requires less drilling and preserves more of the healthy tooth
- Free from mercury, metal, and noticeable discoloration
- Quick, comfortable procedure ideal for younger patients
How Cavities Are Detected and Treated
Cavities in children aren’t always obvious at first. In fact, many develop without pain, especially in the early stages. That’s why regular checkups are essential — they allow us to catch and treat decay before it becomes more serious. Signs that your child may need a dental filling include:
- Sensitivity to cold or sweet foods
- Discomfort when chewing
- Visible spots or discoloration on the tooth
- A rough, chipped, or pitted tooth surface

Frequently Asked Questions
We want you to feel comfortable, informed, and confident before your visit. Here are answers to some of the most common questions our patients ask.
Why choose composite fillings over silver (amalgam) ones?
Composite fillings offer several benefits:
Natural appearance – blends seamlessly with the tooth
Mercury-free – no metal materials
Preserves more tooth structure – bonds directly to the tooth
Less sensitivity to temperature changes
They're a popular choice for children and teens because they’re discreet and effective.
Are composite fillings safe for kids?
Yes! Composite fillings are 100% safe for children. They’re BPA-free and designed specifically for pediatric dentistry. We use high-quality materials that are strong, durable, and biocompatible.
What happens during the filling procedure?
We gently numb the area, remove the decayed portion of the tooth, and apply the tooth-colored composite in layers. Each layer is hardened with a special curing light. The filling is then shaped and polished to look and feel like a natural tooth.
Will my child feel pain during or after the procedure?
The procedure is quick and comfortable. We use gentle techniques and local anesthetic to ensure your child is relaxed and pain-free. Some mild sensitivity after the filling is normal and should fade within a few days.
What if my child has an old metal filling?
If needed, we can safely replace older amalgam fillings with tooth-colored composites for a more natural look. We’ll evaluate the condition of existing fillings and discuss the best approach.
