Are composite fillings safe for kids?

Composite fillings are a fantastic option for kids. Made from a durable, non-toxic tooth-colored resin, they repair cavities or minor damage while keeping your child’s teeth looking completely natural. Your little one won’t even notice the difference, and neither will anyone else.

What Makes Composite Fillings a Great Choice?

  • Durable and Strong
  • Tooth-Colored Match 
  • Non-Toxic Materials 
  • Quick and Easy Placement

How Do Composite Fillings Work?

When your child has a cavity or small tooth damage, we gently clean the area and apply the composite resin. Using a special light, the filling hardens and bonds to the tooth, restoring its strength and function. The result is a beautifully repaired tooth that looks and feels just like the real thing!

Preventing Cavities Moving Forward

While composite fillings are great for fixing issues, preventing cavities in the first place is even better. Regular cleanings, checkups, and a great brushing and flossing routine can help keep those little teeth in great shape.
