Cavities in baby teeth may seem like a minor concern, but ignoring them can lead to bigger problems, including damage to surrounding teeth or even infection. At the Pediatric Dental Center, we offer white fillings, also known as composite fillings, as a safe, durable, and visually appealing solution to protect your child’s smile.
Why Treat Cavities in Baby Teeth?
While baby teeth are temporary, they play a vital role in your child’s oral health. Cavities can deepen over time, spreading decay and causing discomfort or health issues. Treating cavities early with composite fillings helps stop decay, restore tooth function, and maintain your child’s oral health.
What Are White Fillings?
White fillings are made from a tooth-colored composite material that blends seamlessly with your child’s natural teeth. Unlike silver amalgam fillings, composite fillings bond directly to the tooth, offering both structural and aesthetic benefits.
Benefits of White Fillings:
- Natural Appearance: White fillings match the color of natural teeth, keeping your child’s smile confident and healthy-looking.
- Durability: With proper care, composite fillings can last 7–10 years, making them a reliable long-term solution.
- Repairs Damage: In addition to treating cavities, white fillings can fix chipped, stained, or irregular teeth, enhancing the overall appearance of your child’s smile.
