Cavities, one of the most common dental problems, develop when bacteria attack your enamel. To treat cavities, the Center for Dentofacial Aesthetics offers two types of dental fillings: traditional and tooth-colored. Traditional fillings are crafted with a durable material called amalgam, which is a combination of metals, such as mercury or silver. Tooth-colored fillings are made with a composite resin that resembles the look of your natural teeth. Regardless of whichever material they are made out of, dental fillings work by repairing damaged teeth and protecting them from further decay. To see if you might benefit from a dental filling, schedule a dental exam with Dr. Harshit Aggarwal or Dr. Leonel Perez at our office in Annandale, VA.

Receiving a silver or tooth-colored filling at the Center for Dentofacial Aesthetics is usually an easy process. The treatment area will be numbed with a local anesthetic to minimize your discomfort. Stronger forms of sedation can be discussed if you have any anxiety to keep you relaxed during the procedure. As soon as you are ready, the infected enamel can be cleared away with a dental drill that we will select based on the location of the cavity in the tooth and the extent of the decay. After the enamel is cleared away and the area is cleaned, the space will be filled with the composite resin or silver amalgam and hardened. Then, we will polish the filling material so it feels comfortable and aligned with your other teeth.
