What are composite dental fillings?
Woodstock Square Dental believes that a beautiful smile is worth protecting. Sometimes, certain oral problems can limit the movement and functioning of your teeth. In order to treat cavities, repair broken or lost teeth, a combination of restorative dental procedures may be required.
If you require professional composite tooth filling and restoration services in Woodstock, we specialize in tooth-coloured dental fillings that not only restore teeth but also blend beautifully with your smile. Our dentists can place composite resin fillings to prevent further decay and help you preserve your oral health. What’s more, we work with children as well at our caring, family-friendly dental office.
A filling is used if your tooth is affected by cracks, fractures, decay or other issues. To repair such a tooth, our dentist will first remove and clean out the decayed area. Once that’s done, they will fill the area with a tooth-coloured filling.
INLAYS
Inlays are used to restore teeth that are severely decayed or damaged. We use advanced tools and practices that are prevalent in the field to carry out trusted dental inlays. Our team of dental care experts can help you get such inlays done that virtually look and feel like invisible dental restoration.
ONLAYS
Onlays offer patients a sturdier, well-fitted and longer-lasting repair for tooth decay or other structural damage. They are installed on the biting surface of your teeth to repair or restore the damage caused due to an injury or decay. Traditionally, the material used for onlays can be gold, composite, porcelain, and resin.

Benefits of Dentist Tooth Filling
Fill Cavities

Prevents Tooth Decay
By sealing off cavities, fillings help prevent further decay, protecting the tooth from worsening damage.
Prevents Oral Infection
Filling cavities promptly can prevent bacteria from reaching the inner pulp of the tooth, reducing the risk of infections like abscesses.
