Tooth-Colored Aesthetic Restorations in Catonsville, MD
Tooth-colored materials repair chips, cracks, and cavities while matching the natural shade of your teeth. We provide these repairs at our Catonsville office, often in a single visit.
What they can repair
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Small gaps or uneven edges
- Cavities in visible teeth
- Older metal fillings you'd like replaced with a natural look
What to expect
Many aesthetic restorations can be done in a single visit. Your dentist matches the shade to your teeth, applies the tooth-colored material, shapes it, hardens it with a special light, and polishes it to blend in.
Caring for your restorations
Brush and floss as usual, and avoid biting hard objects. Tooth-colored materials can stain over time, so regular cleanings help keep them looking their best.
Frequently asked questions
How long do tooth-colored restorations last?
They often last several years or more, depending on their size, location, and your habits.
Can this be done in one visit?
Many aesthetic repairs can be completed in a single visit. Your dentist will let you know what to expect.
Can you replace my silver fillings?
Yes, if needed or if you'd prefer a more natural look. Your dentist will check whether replacement makes sense.
Does insurance cover aesthetic restorations?
Repairs to damaged teeth are often partly covered. Purely cosmetic changes usually aren't. Please check your benefits.
