Dental Fillings

Restore Your Smile with Long-Lasting, Natural-Looking Fillings

At Cura Dental, we use the latest techniques and materials to treat cavities and restore damaged teeth with durable, tooth-colored dental fillings. Whether you’re dealing with early-stage decay or replacing an old filling, our goal is to restore your tooth’s strength, shape, and appearance—all while keeping you comfortable.

What Are Dental Fillings?

Dental fillings are used to repair minor tooth damage caused by decay, wear, or small fractures. Once the decayed portion of the tooth is removed, a filling material is placed to rebuild and seal the area—preventing further damage and restoring full function.

Types of Fillings We Offer

At Cura Dental, we primarily use composite (tooth-colored) fillings, which are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. These modern fillings are:

  • Strong and long-lasting

  • Metal-free and mercury-free

  • Matched to your natural tooth color for a flawless look

If another material is more appropriate for your specific case, Dr. Rosario will walk you through your options and answer any questions.

Signs You May Need a Filling

You may benefit from a dental filling if you’re experiencing:

  • Tooth sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods

  • Sharp or aching tooth pain

  • A visible hole or dark spot on your tooth

  • A chipped or broken filling

Even if you’re not feeling discomfort, small cavities often show up on X-rays before symptoms appear—so regular checkups matter.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Getting a filling at Cura Dental is a simple and comfortable process:

  1. We gently numb the area for your comfort.

  2. The decayed or damaged area is removed.

  3. A strong, aesthetic composite filling is placed and shaped.

  4. The tooth is polished, and your bite is adjusted for a perfect fit.

Most fillings take under an hour and require no downtime—you’ll leave our office smiling confidently.

Protect Your Smile

If you're experiencing tooth discomfort or think you may need a filling, don’t wait. Cavities can worsen over time, leading to more serious issues like root canals or tooth loss. Early treatment is quick, affordable, and effective.
