Composite Dental Fillings in Sacramento, CA
Natural-Looking Repair for Cavities & Minor Tooth Damage
Composite dental fillings offer a durable, tooth-colored solution for repairing cavities, cracks, and small areas of damage. At Scordakis Family Dental, we use advanced resin materials that blend seamlessly with your natural tooth structure — restoring strength while maintaining a bright, natural appearance.
Whether you’re treating a new cavity or replacing an old metal filling, composite fillings provide a safe, aesthetic option that supports long-term oral health.
What Are Composite Fillings?
Composite fillings are made from a strong, resin-based material that is color-matched to your natural enamel. Because they bond directly to the tooth, they reinforce weakened areas while providing a smooth, natural finish.
They are ideal for treating:
- Cavities
- Minor chips or cracks
- Old or worn-out fillings
- Cosmetic reshaping or small imperfections
Patients love composite fillings because they blend in beautifully, offer excellent durability, and eliminate the metallic look of traditional silver fillings.
