Located in Burlington, Crestview Hills, and Cold Spring, KY, we offer this gentle, effective treatment to prevent cavities in baby teeth and ensure early intervention for optimal dental health. White fillings are not only affordable and quick to apply, but they also blend seamlessly with natural tooth color, keeping your child’s smile bright and strong. Early cavity treatment can make a huge difference, preventing further decay or damage that could affect multiple teeth.

Why Address Cavities in Baby Teeth?
Many parents wonder if cavities in baby teeth really need treatment, considering these teeth eventually fall out. However, untreated cavities can spread, leading to damage to surrounding teeth or even infection. Taking care of baby teeth is essential, as these teeth play a crucial role in your child’s development, aiding in chewing and speech. At our center, we emphasize the importance of early intervention and comfortable care, using white fillings to halt decay and repair any damage without altering the natural look of your child’s smile.

The Advantages of White Fillings Over Traditional Silver Fillings
White fillings, also known as composite fillings, have several benefits over traditional silver amalgam fillings. Unlike silver fillings, which rely on mechanical retention, white fillings bond directly to the tooth surface, offering a stronger, more natural-looking restoration. White fillings are color-matched to your child’s teeth, blending seamlessly while offering durability that can last up to 10 years with proper dental hygiene and regular checkups. Whether they’re applied to front or back teeth, white fillings are a reliable solution to keep your child’s smile both beautiful and healthy.
