Dental Fillings are a restorative treatment that repairs the damage of tooth decay. In fact, fillings are the most common treatment for symptoms of tooth decay, such as cavities. This procedure allows dentists to fill in the holes created by tooth decay. When you go in to receive a dental filling, your hygienist will clean your teeth before the procedure begins. The area being filled will then be numbed before your dentist removes the decay with a dental drill. With the decay removed and the tooth prepped, your dentist will prepare the filling material. What Are The Different Types Of Dental Fillings? Composite Fillings – At Snodgrass-King Dentistry offices, we offer both composite and amalgam fillings. Composite fillings are made with tooth-colored material made from porcelain. So, if you want a more natural-looking smile, composite fillings might be the right option for you. Amalgam Fillings – Amalgam fillings, on the other hand, are made with silver material. Amalgam fillings may not look the prettiest, but they do last longer than any other type of filling. Ceramic Fillings – Although definitely one of the pricier options, ceramic is a great material that hits both durability and aesthetics, and will probably outlast a composite filling. Be sure to talk to your dentist before your procedure to decide the right dental filling for you.

Sealants are a preventive treatment applied to premolars and molars with deep crevices to reduce the risk of tooth decay. Bacteria like these deep grooves because they can hide in them and stay safe from toothbrushing. The longer the bacteria live in these grooves, the more plaque they create, which increases the risk of cavities. Beyond taking care of your teeth every day, getting a sealant makes the bacteria easier to brush away. With fewer bacteria on your teeth, less plaque acid will build up on the enamel surface of your teeth. So, you can reduce your child’s risk of cavities with a dental sealant.

Full mouth rehabilitation (also known as full mouth reconstruction or restoration) is a comprehensive dental treatment aimed at restoring the function, health, and appearance of a patient's entire mouth. This involves rebuilding or replacing all teeth in both the upper and lower jaws. It can be necessary for individuals with extensive dental issues such as severely damaged teeth, worn-down teeth, advanced decay, trauma, or congenital conditions. Full mouth rehabilitation typically involves multiple procedures, which may include: Crowns or bridges to restore damaged teeth. Veneers for aesthetic improvement. Dental implants to replace missing teeth. Orthodontics to align the teeth. Gum and bone treatments for periodontal disease or bone loss. Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) therapy for jaw alignment issues. The process is customized based on the patient’s specific needs, and often involves a multidisciplinary team of specialists such as prosthodontists, periodontists, orthodontists, and oral surgeons. The goal is to restore full function (chewing, speaking) as well as aesthetics for a complete smile makeover. For more information about treatment please call us or visit the clinic
