What Are Tooth Fillings?

Tooth fillings are used to repair areas of your teeth that have been damaged by decay or minor fractures. At our Comprehensive Dental Care, we use composite resin – a strong, tooth-colored material that blends beautifully with your natural teeth for a discreet, long-lasting result.

When Do You Need a Filling?

Dr. Bodnar may recommend a filling if you:

  • Have a cavity or early tooth decay

  • Notice sensitivity to sweets, cold, or hot temperatures

  • Have a chipped or worn tooth

  • Want to replace old metal fillings with a more natural-looking option

Treating decay early with a filling can save your tooth and prevent more serious problems like infection or the need for a crown or root canal.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Getting a filling is a simple, comfortable visit. Here’s what to expect:

  1. Numbing the area to keep you comfortable

  2. Gently removing the decayed or damaged part of the tooth

  3. Placing and shaping the tooth-colored resin to match your natural tooth

  4. Curing the filling with a special light to harden and bond the material

  5. Polishing the tooth for a smooth, natural look and feel

You’ll be in and out of the office quickly – and back to your normal routine the same day.

Why Choose Composite Fillings?

  • Natural appearance – blends with your existing tooth

  • Durable & long-lasting – stands up to daily chewing

  • Mercury-free – safe and metal-free

  • Minimally invasive – preserves more of your healthy tooth

Dr. Bodnar will make sure your restoration feels comfortable and functions properly—so you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
