Getting a cavity filled is a bittersweet moment. It’s nice because your tooth doesn’t hurt anymore, and your tooth is back to its strong self. But one of the downsides of a cavity is that you’re left with a gray, cement-colored filling afterward.
That’s not exactly the definition of a great smile. And, if you’re having a big cavity filled, that only makes it more noticeable! Believe it or not, but it can subconsciously affect your self-esteem and willingness to be outgoing in social and professional situations.
Composite resin
This is the best resin to use if you want Dr. Scott Chandler to fill your cavities in as discreet a way as possible. A composite resin is made of different materials that combine to create a tooth-colored filling. It’s mostly plastic, with a few other materials mixed in for durability. This is most preferred method of filling because it is the most natural and blends in with your tooth, giving you the smile you want.
Putting effort and time into choosing the right filling material makes a difference. Everyone here at Dr. Scott Chandler, DMD in Park City, UT, has seen that happen firsthand. We recommend a composite resin dental filling because we know they work, and we want to see you have the best smile possible.
