That\u2019s why fillings are a standard part of any dental office. But even with so many offices offering fillings, not every office offers tooth-colored fillings<\/a>.\r\n\r\nTooth-colored fillings<\/strong> are a cosmetic<\/a> alternative to traditional amalgam fillings. Instead of using a combination of metals, including mercury, to repair teeth and stop decay, tooth-colored fillings<\/strong> use strong composite resins<\/strong> to restore smiles.\r\n\r\nWhat does that mean for you?\r\n\r\nIt means a healthier smile that also looks completely natural. That\u2019s because composite resins<\/strong> can be custom-shaded to match the color of your smile. As a result, no one but you and Dr. Latner<\/a> will ever have to know that you\u2019ve had fillings.\r\n\r\nAs an added benefit, you can look forward to your tooth-colored fillings<\/strong> last just as long as amalgam fillings would. What\u2019s more, tooth-colored fillings<\/strong> actually bond to teeth, supporting their natural structure instead of just acting as a barrier to decay. This keeps teeth stronger and helps prevent bacterial reinvasion.\r\n\r\nWould you like to learn more about how tooth-colored fillings<\/strong> can help you restore your smile? Call<\/a> Westside Dental Associates<\/strong> today with your questions or to schedule an appointment. Dr. Latner<\/strong> serves patients from Los Angeles, West Los Angeles, Westwood, Santa Monica, Rancho Park, Culver City, Beverly Hills, Venice, Marina del Rey, and surrounding areas.<\/strong>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Most patients have trouble with tooth decay at some point.
