Fillings are the most typical dental treatments, whose main purpose is to fix the damage done by tooth decay and prevent any further destruction of teeth structure.

The first thing a dentist will do on learning you have tooth decay is clean out the cavity by removing the soft, affected areas of the tooth. The next step will be to fill out the tooth hole with a proper filling material. It will restore the integrity and functionality of the tooth so you could chew and bite without feeling any pain. The filling also serves to protect the vulnerable inside of your tooth from the damaging effect of bacteria.

In the past, the only available options were metal, gold or silver amalgam fillings. We neither recommend nor use these materials at our clinic as they make your smile look far from natural; besides the mercury-containing amalgam fillings often result in cracked and discolored teeth.

Dental World of Marietta offers their patients only the best contemporary fillings made out of porcelain or composite resin. They closely match the color of the bulk of the tooth and are durable enough to withstand the constant stress of chewing.

If you suffer from tooth decay or cavities, don’t wait any longer and make an appointment with one of our dedicated dentists at Dental World of Marietta. They will check teeth for any visible abnormalities using a special mirror and proceed to a more detailed examination of the detected issues. Based on visual checkup and X-ray results (if necessary), our dentist will come up with a treatment.

Don’t hesitate to give us a call. We will make sure to bring back your confident and healthy smile in no time.
