Composite Fillings in Burlington, ON
White fillings, which are matched to the colour of your natural teeth, are used to fill cavities and prevent further damage or decay to your tooth, preserving its appearance and texture.


Restore The Natural Look And Feel Of Teeth

How Is A Cavity Filled?

Gentle Freezing
Prior to starting the procedure, we will ensure to freeze your gums carefully, which will mildly numb the area. Many individuals experience anxiety during this step. Freezing will help to numb your teeth and the surrounding area, resulting in minimal discomfort during the procedure.

Filling the Tooth
Once we have confirmed that you are sufficiently numbed, we will proceed with the gentle cleaning and preparation of your affected tooth. An adhesive gel is applied to the tooth, and a composite resin (white filling material) is then moulded and sculpted to match the contours or bite of your tooth.
