What are Composite Dental Fillings and What do they Treat?
A composite filling is made using powdered glass and plastic resin to match your teeth’ color perfectly. The composite material fills in the gaps in your teeth that were created by tooth decay. Composite fillings ease any health concerns traditionally associated with metal fillings.
