Dental fillings just got an upgrade!
Composite fillings are made from a durable, tooth-colored resin that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing a natural-looking and long-lasting solution for cavities and other types of dental decay.
Whether you want to replace your old metal fillings or simply want a more aesthetically pleasing option, composite fillings may be the ideal choice. At Crystal Lake Dental Arts, we specialize in providing high-quality composite fillings that are tailored to meet your unique needs and restore your smile to its natural beauty.
Benefits of composite fillings
