Protect And Restore Your Child’s Smile With Composite Fillings

We proudly offer our patients composite fillings at Bird Pediatric Dentistry in Charlotte. It’s a dental restoration used to fill teeth damaged by cavities, decay, chips, or cracks, and this material also helps children of all ages maintain their smiling and speaking confidence!

How are composite fillings applied?

Our dentist will remove any decayed or damaged area of your child’s tooth during the procedure. The site will then be cleaned and shaped, and a bonding agent will be applied to keep the composite filling in place. Our dentist will layer the material, using a special curing light to harden and set it. Your child’s tooth will be smoothed, and their bite will be checked before their visit is complete.

What are the benefits of composite fillings?

Composite fillings can match the color of your child’s teeth, giving them a more natural appearance. They can also help protect tooth structure from further decay or damage, and when taken care of diligently, these fillings can last for ten years or more.

Why should you consider composite fillings for your child?

At Bird Pediatric Dentistry, composite fillings can be a great choice for most children experiencing decay. They are minimally invasive and provide a natural appearance to your child’s smile. They are also durable, long-lasting, effective, and easy to repair if damage occurs.
