[Highland Ranch, July 11, 2015] –Highlands Ranch Dental Group, the dentists of choice for many in Highlands Ranch, offers tooth colored composite fillings for more natural, less noticeable fillings. The tooth colored fillings are similar in color to the patient’s natural teeth.

Composite fillings are just one of the many options for patients who want to have their teeth restored after damage due to decay or other dental problems. Highlands Ranch Dental Group provides patients with this option so they can have it colored to match their actual tooth’s color.

Types of Fillings

There are several types of fillings, such as gold fillings, which are made to order and made to last more than 20 years; amalgam fillings, which are dark gray in color and relatively inexpensive; and composites, which dentists can match to the patient’s teeth.

Composite fillings are ideal for those who want a natural appearance for their restored teeth. Gold or silver can look distracting, but white composite fillings look the most natural and often go completely unnoticed. It is made from durable plastics, which is then placed directly into the cavity, where they harden.

Benefits of Composite

Apart from the benefit in terms of aesthetics, the dentists at Highlands Ranch Dental Group say that this option is compatible with sealants, allowing dentists to perform certain procedures in a single sitting. Other types require multiple visits, but composites can be done in one day to prevent further decay.

Composite fillings are also capable of bonding to tooth structure, which makes it even more durable. In cases when it’s quickly worn due to bad habits and poor maintenance, it can be easily repaired by the simple addition of more composite material.

Highlands Ranch Dental Group offers 5 payment solutions that provide payment flexibility without compromising treatment quality. They accept all PPO dental insurance plans and dental discount plans.
