Tooth-Colored (Composite) Fillings – Natural and Strong
Tooth-colored fillings, also known as composite dental fillings, are made from a durable, tooth-colored resin that bonds directly to the tooth. These restorations are ideal for small to medium cavities and are especially popular for front teeth or any visible area of the smile. We specialize in cosmetic dental fillings in Fremont, CA, offering precise shade matching and expert placement for a flawless result.

Silver (Amalgam) Fillings – Traditional Strength
We also provide silver dental fillings in Fremont for patients who prefer a traditional option. Silver (amalgam) fillings have been used for decades and are known for their durability, especially in molars where chewing forces are stronger.
While not as discreet as composite, silver fillings are a reliable and affordable choice for long-term restoration—particularly for patients who value function over aesthetics in back teeth.
Caring for Your New Filling
Avoid Chewing on the Numb Side
Wait until numbness fully wears off before eating, to avoid accidentally biting your cheek or tongue.
Ease Into Harder Foods
Stick to softer foods for the first day, especially with a larger filling, to give the material time to fully set.
Watch for Lingering Sensitivity
Mild sensitivity to hot or cold is normal for a few days; let us know if it doesn't settle down.
Keep Up Your Brushing Routine
Fillings don't need special products, just your regular twice-daily brushing and flossing.
Don't Skip Follow-Up Checkups
Routine exams let us confirm your filling is holding up well and catch any wear early.
Limit Sticky or Hard Foods
Avoid biting down on very hard or sticky foods that could place unnecessary pressure on the new filling or cause it to become damaged.
Benefits of Composite Dental Fillings
Natural Appearance
Composite fillings are matched to your natural tooth color, creating a seamless restoration that blends with surrounding teeth.
Strong Adhesion
Composite material bonds directly to the tooth structure, helping restore its strength while providing a secure and durable filling.
Minimal Enamel Removal
Composite fillings often require less removal of healthy tooth structure, allowing more of your natural tooth to be preserved.
Mercury-Free
Composite fillings do not contain mercury, making them a popular choice for patients seeking a tooth-colored, mercury-free restoration.
Ideal for Cosmetic Work
Their natural appearance makes composite fillings suitable for repairing chipped, worn, discolored, or otherwise cosmetically imperfect teeth.
Versatile Treatment Option
Composite fillings can be used to treat cavities in both front and back teeth, making them a versatile option for restoring damaged teeth.
