Doctor Dave Dorroh on Tooth Fillings
If their teeth are damaged with decay, then we’re always going to use, do a filling, if it’s small enough, and then we’re going to use the composite filling material to do it. And we have a multitude of ways to do that, but we always come up with a great result. So if you want to match colors, we do our best.
We have a multitude of shades to choose from. If we’re going to do crown and bridge, we send the patient to the lab and the lab actually does shade matching in the lab so that we get the colors that we want whenever we’re doing permanent restorations. The goal is to always do something that’s going to last for a long time.

Enjoy a Complete Smile With a New Tooth Filling
Our team uses using only the most advanced, metal-free tooth fillings. These modern restorations blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring a beautiful smile while effectively treating decay. Don’t let tooth decay dim your smile! Our tooth filling process typically involves:
- A thorough examination of the affected tooth
- Removal of the decayed area
- Cleaning and preparation of the tooth
- Application of the metal-free filling material
- Shaping and polishing for a perfect fit
The entire procedure is usually completed in a single visit, and most patients experience minimal discomfort. Our skilled team will take care to ensure your comfort throughout the process. We’ll numb your mouth with local anesthesia. But you can also relax with your choice of sedation options, either laughing gas or oral sedation in pill form.
We use composite resin fillings. They offer several advantages over metal fillings:
- They match your natural tooth color.
- They bond directly to your tooth, giving it extra strength.
- They require less removal of your healthy tooth structure.
- They’re free from mercury and other metals.
With proper care, your new filling can last for many years. We’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to help maintain your oral health and extend the life of your filling.

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. They also cause fewer allergy issues than amalgam.
All dental fillings are safe for most patients. However, some studies have raised concerns about the long-term health impact of mercury, which is used in amalgam fillings. Both the FDA and the American Dental Association say mercury in fillings is safe. However, mercury isn’t a concern at all with our composite fillings.
The life of fillings will vary, depending on their location and your oral hygiene, among other factors. A composite filling typically lasts from five to 10 years. No filling is designed to last a lifetime. You can maximize the life span of any filling by brushing and flossing every day and visiting us at least twice a year for professional cleanings.
