We only use tooth-colored fillings for a beautiful result.
Durable and Natural-Looking Tooth-Colored Fillings
We provide tooth-colored fillings using strong white filling material. For large fillings, we use an inlay or onlay. Inlays and onlays are a type of filling used as a restoration of a broken-down tooth, for large cavities or to replace an existing large filling. Inlays are designed for tooth damage affecting the indented portion of the top of the tooth. Onlays are for more extensive damage.

Advantages of Non-Amalgam Fillings
Aesthetics is a big advantage with composite fillings over silver amalgam fillings. Additionally, as silver amalgam does not stick to teeth, healthy tooth structure is usually removed to keep a silver filling in place. Composites permit your dentist to remove only the decayed area of your tooth. Unlike silver fillings, composite bonding expands just like natural teeth and is much less likely to cause cracks. Composites bond directly to the tooth, providing support.
Inlays & Onlays for Large Cavities
Inlays and onlays are a type of filling that can be used to replace an existing large filling or as a restoration of a broken-down tooth.
We use high quality ceramic made in our own laboratory using the CEREC® 3D system. This system allows us to create beautiful tooth-colored inlays and onlays that match the color and appearance of the rest of your teeth. It creates the same translucence, color and brilliance of natural, healthy teeth.
Inlays and Onlays in One Visit
Inlays and onlays can sometimes take several visits and require temporaries. Using the CEREC system, we can apply these in one visit—often in less than an hour. To learn more about CEREC, click here.

Safe Removal of Amalgam Fillings
Create a beautiful smile with the removal of your old silver fillings. We use special equipment and procedures for safe removal of amalgam fillings. With our safe methods, toxic vapors that are released and mercury in the silver fillings are completely contained. Composite tooth-colored fillings are also more bio-compatible with your body than amalgam fillings.
