Composite Dental Fillings in Barrie

Composite Dental Fillings

Do you have cavities that need to be filled? Dr. Dove Dental Office provides dental fillings made from composite resin. This is the most common material for fillings and can be easily colour-matched to suit your smile.

Receiving a Dental Filling

Your dentist may apply a local anesthetic to the area. Next, they will clean out the decayed materials and rinse out the area. Once all of the decayed material has been removed, they will apply the filling and harden it with a bonding light.

Preventing Cavities

Though fillings are an effective way to mitigate the health risks of cavities, preventing the cavity from occurring in the first place is the best way to stay healthy. We recommend brushing your teeth twice per day, flossing daily before bed, and coming into the clinic periodically for a dental hygiene appointment to ensure your teeth are free of food particles, plaque, and tartar.
