At Morning Star Children’s Dentistry, we’re dedicated to nurturing healthy, confident smiles with gentle and compassionate care. One of the important services we offer is composite dental fillings—a safe, effective solution for treating cavities and preserving your child’s oral health.
Request an AppointmentWhen Does Your Child Need a Dental Filling?
Composite fillings are often needed when your child has a cavity or minor tooth damage. These tooth-colored fillings are perfect for restoring both the function and appearance of a tooth, making them especially ideal for visible areas like the front teeth.
The procedure for placing a composite filling is gentle and comfortable for your child. Our skilled pediatric dentist will carefully remove any decay, then apply the composite material, shaping it to match the natural contours of the tooth. A special light is used to harden the material, leaving behind a durable, natural-looking restoration that blends seamlessly with your child’s smile.
Why Choose Composite Fillings?
Composite fillings offer several benefits, including their ability to match the natural color of teeth, making them nearly invisible. They also bond directly to the tooth, providing additional strength and support. Importantly, they are mercury-free, making them a safe and effective choice for treating tooth decay and damage.
