Tooth-Colored Fillings
Instead of sacrificing the appearance of your smile with a metal cavity filling, you can choose our tooth-colored composite resin fillings. These are made from a biocompatible material that chemically fuses with the tooth enamel to create a strong, leak-free bond that reduces your risk of developing a tooth infection down the road. Once placed, most of our patients aren’t even able to tell which one of their teeth has the cavity!
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are customized, cap-like structures that are made to fit over the biting surface of broken, severely decayed, and misshapen teeth. They can be made from a variety of materials, although most of our patients choose to have theirs crafted from discreet porcelain or ceramic. They help provide lasting protection and strength to fragile teeth so you can continue using them as you normally would.
Composite & Amalgam Dental Restorations
At Newport Dental Associates, whether you’re looking for a durable and strong metal restoration or one that flawlessly blends in with the rest of your smile, you can find them both here! We custom-tailor each treatment to every individual patient’s needs. That’s why we take the time to understand what you’re looking for and help guide you in a direction that you’ll be happy with. To learn more about our amalgam and composite restorations, don’t hesitate to contact our dental office or schedule a consultation!
Bioactive Materials
We also use bioactive materials to place restorations. In a nutshell, these are materials like calcium silicates and calcium aluminates that come in a powder form. When they’re mixed with water, a chemical reaction occurs that allows them to produce an alkaline pH after setting, which helps protect your teeth from demineralization, or enamel erosion. This will reduce your risk of developing additional decay or other oral health problems down the road.
