The Outer Banks dentists at Atlantic Dentistry in Kitty Hawk and Manteo NC offer comprehensive dental care services, including tooth-colored fillings. They have two convenient office locations in Kitty Hawk and Manteo NC to help you have a beautiful smile.

The Perks of Tooth-Colored Fillings

Tooth-colored fillings use a material called composite. This material starts as a liquid resin which can be matched closely to the color of your teeth. Because it is a liquid, it is sculpted to match the natural contours of your teeth. Once in place, the composite is hardened with an ultraviolet “curing” light. The result is a stunning restoration which enhances your smile and doesn’t detract from it as metal fillings can.

These are just a few of the benefits of tooth-colored fillings:

  • Natural beauty, because tooth-colored fillings blend in with your smile and are virtually undetectable.
  • Quick results, because tooth-colored fillings can be completed in one appointment.
  • Easy treatment, because if there is no decay, you may not need an anesthetic.
  • Increased strength, because tooth-colored fillings are bonded to the tooth structure.
