What Are Dental Fillings and When Are They Needed?
Dental fillings are essential for treating cavities and tooth decay in children. They restore the structure and function of a tooth affected by decay, preserving your child’s oral health. At Pediatric Dentistry of Garden City & Syosset, our experienced pediatric dentists, including Dr. Stacey Reynolds, Dr. Divya Khera, Dr. Kelly Mastrovito, and Dr. Katherine Park, specialize in providing fillings that are both durable and aesthetically pleasing.
Our team offers fillings designed for children, ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and long-lasting. This approach helps prevent further decay and keeps your child’s teeth strong and functional.
Types of Dental Fillings We Offer
Our practice uses tooth-colored, composite fillings designed to blend seamlessly with your child’s natural teeth. These fillings are durable, BPA-free, and effective at protecting against future decay, keeping your child’s smile both healthy and beautiful.
Common Filling Types for Kids:
- Composite Resin Fillings: Known for their natural appearance, these fillings match the color of the surrounding tooth and are highly durable.
- Glass Ionomer Fillings: These are sometimes used for smaller cavities in younger children, offering added benefits like fluoride release, which aids in strengthening teeth.
