Composite fillings offer a modern, healthier alternative to traditional silver (amalgam) fillings. Unlike metal options, composite materials bond securely to the tooth structure, allowing for smaller restorations, less drilling, and a more comfortable experience for your child.

Made from BPA-free resin and reinforced materials, composite fillings are both strong enough for daily chewing and gentle enough for developing teeth. Best of all, composite fillings blend naturally with your child’s teeth, eliminating the noticeable metal look and reducing the risk of future discoloration.

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

• 

  Requires less drilling and preserves more of the healthy tooth

• 

  Free from mercury, metal, and noticeable discoloration

• 

  Quick, comfortable procedure ideal for younger patients

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
