Dental Fillings in Rifle, CO

With good oral hygiene habits and a healthy diet, you can avoid most tooth decay issues. However, if you do get a cavity, our dentist at Quartz Dentistry in Rifle, CO, has several materials to choose from to fill your tooth. There are many factors to consider when choosing which material to use to fill cavities.

Types of Filling Materials

There are five materials that dentists can use to fill a cavity. These materials include:

• Composite Fillings – Composite fillings are also known as filled resins or composite resins. They are popular because the material is durable and blends in well with your natural teeth. Your dentist can order composite fillings in a shade of white that closely matches your teeth.

• Disclaimer: At Quartz Dentistry, we do not use dental amalgam in our practice. This decision reflects our commitment to overall patient health and the long-term integrity of tooth structure. The materials we use are selected with care and tailored to each patient’s individual needs
