Modern tooth fillings restore damaged teeth while keeping your smile healthy. Your dentist uses different materials, including options that blend perfectly with your teeth, to repair cavities and protect against further decay. Benefits of our Chambersburg tooth fillings include:

Think you’ve got a cavity? Call Guilford Hills Dental Care today at 717-912-5227 to schedule your appointment.

Restore Your Smile With a Tooth Filling

Understanding your options for dental fillings helps you make the best choice for your dental health. We use digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to examine your teeth carefully, showing you exactly where decay exists and helping us plan precise treatment. This advanced equipment lets us spot problems early and treat them effectively.

Our practice offers several filling materials to restore your tooth:

  • Composite Resin – These tooth-colored fillings blend naturally with your teeth and bond directly to your tooth structure. This requires less tooth modification than other options. They work well for both front and back teeth.
  • Amalgam – Made from a mix of metals, these strong, long-lasting fillings can withstand heavy chewing forces. They’re often used for back teeth where strength matters most.

During your visit, your dentist will discuss which filling material best suits your needs based on the cavity’s location, size, and your personal preferences. We’ll explain the benefits of each option and help you choose the right solution for your smile. Our team will also ensure your comfort throughout the filling process, typically completing your treatment in one easy visit. For larger cavities, your dentist may suggest an inlay, onlay, or dental crown.

Common Questions About Tooth Fillings
What are white tooth fillings made of?

White tooth fillings are made of composite resin, a blend of ceramic and plastic. Unlike amalgam fillings, which are made of a blend of metals, they can be matched to the color of your other teeth so they aren’t noticeable in your smile.

Which tooth fillings are safe?

Opinions vary widely on which fillings are safe and which are not. Some dental professionals feel that traditional amalgam (silver) fillings should be avoided because of the mercury they contain. However, the ADA and FDA believe they are safe and pose no threat to your health.

When do tooth fillings need to be replaced?

The life of your tooth filling depends on which kind of filling is used, its location, your oral hygiene habits, and other factors. Metal fillings typically last longer than composite fillings. For this reason, they may be better for hidden areas of your mouth that experience more force from chewing. With proper care, both kinds of fillings should last at least several years.
