Understanding Resin Fillings
Composite resin can be used to restore small areas of tooth damage or repair specific cosmetic concerns. Its longevity depends on bite forces, oral hygiene and maintenance.
What to expect
Your care plan should be based on an in-person assessment. The following steps are common considerations, not a guarantee that every treatment is appropriate.
- Detection and treatment planning
- Cleaning and preparation of the tooth
- Placement, shaping and polishing
Individualized care
Ask the dental team about expected benefits, alternatives, costs, risks and follow-up before making treatment decisions.
