Fillings

Leaving behind the traditional dental treatments, fillings are now in much demand based on the huge technology change. Our dentists Dr. Charles Krikorian and Dr. Reynaldo Pita, are extremely careful and vigilant in filling the composite resin. The dental fillings done by our dentists are performed based on the technique and process that they have learned after so much experience and treating numerous patients who keep visiting us at the Dental Specialists on Pembroke Pine. The fillings of composite resin used for tooth bonding are sometimes very sensitive, but you may rest assured, as our dentist will give you the proper aftercare tips as well.

These are some of the most common materials used for making dental fillings:

  • Silver Amalgam fillings- It is made of an alloy that consists of silver and several other materials. It is a strong, durable, and affordable filling option that is quite popular among dentists.
  • Composite fillings- These are made of resin and plastic material and are generally preferred due to their aesthetic appeal. They are customized to match the color of your existing natural teeth, but they are not as durable as the silver amalgam fillings.
  • Ceramic fillings- Made up of porcelain, these fillings are durable and aesthetically pleasing. They are resistant to stains and abrasion, hence are more expensive than the other types.
