Get dental fillings for children in Northern Kentucky.At the Pediatric Dental Center, we understand that cavities in baby teeth can be concerning for parents. That’s why we offer white fillings, also known as composite fillings, to keep your child’s smile healthy and bright. Available at our offices in Burlington, Crestview Hills, and Cold Spring, KY, white fillings are a quick, effective, and affordable way to treat cavities in baby teeth.

Why Treat Cavities in Baby Teeth? Cavities in baby teeth shouldn’t be ignored. Left untreated, decay can spread, potentially damaging other teeth or leading to infections. Early treatment with white fillings is not only easy and comfortable but also crucial for maintaining your child’s oral health.

The Benefits of White Fillings White fillings offer several advantages over traditional silver amalgam fillings:

  • Natural Appearance: White fillings are color-matched to your child’s natural teeth, ensuring their smile looks as good as it feels. They seamlessly blend in, reversing smile defects without compromising appearance.
  • Durability: These composite fillings are durable, often lasting between 7 to 10 years with proper care. Regular brushing, flossing, and twice-yearly dental visits will help maximize their longevity.
  • Versatility: White fillings are not just for cavities; they are also excellent for repairing chipped, stained, or irregular teeth. Originally used for front teeth due to their aesthetic appeal, they are now commonly used in back teeth as well for their strength and reliability.
