At Dentistry for Children Reno, we offer durable, high-quality fillings to restore and protect children’s teeth affected by decay or damage. Our team provides both traditional and composite filling options, ensuring strength and a natural appearance. A composite resin (white filling) is a restoration that matches the color of the tooth for an esthetic and natural look.
Types of Fillings for Kids’ Dental Health
- Composite Fillings: Made from a plastic resin that mimics natural tooth color, ideal for front teeth and visible areas.
- Traditional Fillings: Using materials like porcelain, which provide durability and strength, especially for back teeth that handle more chewing force.
What to Expect with Children’s Fillings
Several factors influence the choice of filling, including:
- The location and extent of decay
- The type of material best suited for durability and appearance
- The need to withstand chewing pressure
- Comfort during and after the procedure
Our experienced pediatric dentists discuss all options with parents, ensuring your child receives the best treatment for their specific needs, with a focus on comfort, safety, and a natural look.
