Want a great smile? Cosmetic fillings can make your teeth look like new again. Cosmetic dental fillings are the most popular type of fillings because they look natural. Dr. Wayne Cook is one of the finest family and cosmetic dentists in Marion, AR. He offers a full range of dental services, including cosmetic fillings. Here are the top five benefits of cosmetic fillings:
1. Maintain Tooth Health
Composite is a mixture of powdered glass-like particles and acrylic resin that produces a tooth-colored filling. Cosmetic fillings work wonderfully for cavities. Most of the healthy tooth structure can be preserved, and the material serves to hold that structure tightly together to prevent fracture and further decay.
2. Pleasing Appearance
Traditional amalgam fillings are less popular than cosmetic fillings because of their silver-like appearance. Once your Marion, AR, dentist completes your cosmetic dental filling, it will look completely natural and won’t be noticeable when you smile or speak.
3. Avoid Allergens
Some individuals, especially those with a family history of metal allergies, are allergic to one or more of the metals in traditional amalgam fillings. For patients who are allergic to the metals used in traditional fillings, cosmetic fillings can restore the teeth without risk of an allergic reaction.
4. Good Durability
Dental fillings may last many years but, eventually, all fillings need to be replaced. Composite is a strong material, providing good durability in small to mid-sized dental restorations. They can be expected to withstand biting and chewing forces well. Composite fillings are strong enough to use in back teeth.
5. One Single Visit
Say goodbye to lengthy treatment sessions at the dentist's office. Your cosmetic fillings can be completed in one single visit. The treatment will be completed quickly and you will leave the same day with your dental restoration.
Having cosmetic fillings done will do you and your smile a world of good. If you need a dental filling and reside in the Marion, AR, area, call our dental office at 870-739-8799 today to schedule an appointment for the best tooth repair possible.
