Composite Fillings in Fountain Valley

When a tooth needs repair, the right filling makes all the difference.

At KYT Dental Services, we use composite (tooth-colored) fillings designed to blend seamlessly with your smile — while protecting your tooth for the long run.

Composite Fillings in Fountain Valley

Why Fillings Matter

Cavities don’t just cause pain — they weaken your teeth and can lead to bigger, more expensive problems if left untreated. Fillings:

  • 🦷 Stop decay before it spreads deeper into the tooth
  • 💎 Restore strength so you can chew comfortably again
  • 😁 Blend naturally with your smile (when composite is used)
  • 🛡️ Protect against further breakdown or fractures

Silver vs. Composite Fillings

What's the Difference

Not all fillings are the same — some use dark metals, while others blend naturally with your smile.
Silver Fillings (Amalgam)

Silver Fillings (Amalgam)

For healthy gums and prevention

⚠️ Noticeable dark metal that can stain teeth and gums
⚠️ Requires more drilling, removing healthy tooth structure
⚠️ Expands and contracts with temperature → risk of cracks
⚠️ Contains mercury alloy, raising health and safety concerns

Bottom Line: Silver fillings are outdated, less natural, and can weaken teeth over time.

Composite Fillings (Tooth-Colored)

Composite Fillings (Tooth-Colored)

For gum disease and bone protection

✨ Blends with your natural tooth color
✨ Bonds directly to tooth for a stronger seal
✨ Requires less drilling, preserving more healthy tooth
✨ Won’t expand or contract like metal fillings

Bottom Line: Composite fillings are safer, stronger, and virtually invisible — protecting your teeth without compromising your smile.

What to Expect
