Your Healthiest, Confident Smile Starts at Turtle Town Dental
If you need a filling from our dentist near Auburn, IN, why not have it match your beautiful smile? For years, amalgam (silver filling) was the only option for treating teeth with decay or cavities. Thankfully, Turtle Town Dental has a better option instead of the traditional metal type. Our tooth-colored fillings made of composite resin are designed to closely match the natural color of your tooth.
Do You Need A Dental Filling?
If you suspect that you need a filling, don’t wait until your next routine appointment. Turtle Town Dental can usually accommodate patients with same-day appointments. Patients who ignore these signs might end up with a more advanced problem, as bacteria quickly invades an untreated cavity. Give our dentist a call if you experience any of the following:
- Toothache or ongoing pain
- Tooth sensitivity
- Lost or broken filling
- Dark spot on your tooth
Fight Cavities With Immediate Care
For some, cavities are preventable. For others, cavities are inevitable. Certain mouths are prone to cavities regardless of dental hygiene habits and diets. For example, a mouth with crowded teeth often has points of friction between the teeth that can lead to an increase in the number of cavities. If you are someone who is prone to cavities (one or more per year) despite a rigorous dental regimen, our dentist will be happy to discuss proactive steps you can take to decrease your cavity risk level. Whether your cavity was inevitable or preventable doesn’t change your need for a solution. You may be experiencing pain due to your cavity, most likely when you chew on the affected side of your mouth. However, even if you aren’t experiencing pain, getting your cavity resolved as soon as possible is extremely important. An ignored cavity can lead to further tooth decay that can affect other teeth and the health of your gums as well.
Smile Brighter with Tooth-Colored Fillings
Our dentist uses high quality resin that is durable and fracture resistant. These natural looking fillings can be used to fill both small and mid-sized cavities or in areas of decay. In fact, because our cosmetic fillings blend so precisely with your own tooth color, we are able to treat decay on both front and back teeth as well. Tooth-colored fillings enhance a bright, youthful appearance. No one will even notice they’re there – including you!
