Frequently Asked Questions

At Platt Dentistry, we proudly offer tooth-colored composite resin fillings that provide aesthetic andclose up of tooth colored filling in tooth | tooth colored fillings lakeville mn functional benefits for our patients. 

The Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings in Lakeville

Composite resin fillings in Lakeville offer several significant advantages:
 
  • Aesthetic Appeal — These fillings match the exact shade of your natural teeth, making them virtually invisible when you speak or smile. This is particularly beneficial for front teeth or visible areas of the mouth where traditional metal fillings would be noticeable.
  • Conservative Treatment — Composite fillings require less tooth structure removal. Dr. Platt and Dr. Sharpe can preserve more of your natural tooth, which helps maintain long-term dental health and tooth strength.
  • Versatile Application — Beyond cavity treatment, composite resin can repair chips, cracks and even reshape teeth, providing a multipurpose dental solution. They bond directly to the tooth surface, creating a strong and durable restoration.
The process is straightforward. We carefully match the composite material to your tooth color, prepare the tooth surface, and precisely place the filling. The material is then hardened using a special curing light, creating a strong, long-lasting restoration.
