A cosmetic filling is a procedure that your dentist carries out to improve the aesthetics and, often, the function of your teeth. The cosmetic filling is made from various materials depending on the location of the tooth and which materials the dentist uses at the office. At The Med Dental we can also use the cosmetic filling to stop the spread of decay and help repair a damaged tooth.
Composite cosmetic fillings are typically used to fill teeth that are visible, and the resin is matched to the natural color of the tooth. This allows the filling to blend in so that anyone looking at the patient's teeth will not notice that the difference.
