Complete Filling Services
Dr. Yang begins by numbing the area and carefully removing the decayed portion of the tooth, preserving as much healthy structure as possible. The prepared area is then filled with the chosen material, shaped to match the tooth's natural contours, and hardened for a durable, comfortable result. Composite fillings are color-matched to blend seamlessly with your tooth, while amalgam fillings offer exceptional strength for back teeth that handle heavy chewing.
Why Quality Fillings Are Important
If you are experiencing tooth sensitivity or have been told you have a cavity, a filling can often address the problem quickly and comfortably. Treating a cavity with a filling stops the decay from spreading deeper into the tooth, where it could reach the nerve and lead to more involved treatment. Dr. Yang recommends the filling option that works best for your specific situation. A well-placed filling restores the tooth's ability to chew and bite normally, helping you eat comfortably without sensitivity. Addressing cavities early keeps your overall dental care simpler and helps you maintain a healthy, functional smile.

Common questions
What's the difference between composite and amalgam fillings?
Composite fillings are tooth-colored and blend naturally with your teeth, while amalgam fillings are silver-colored and extremely durable. Dr. Yang will recommend the best option for your specific needs.
How long do dental fillings last?
Composite fillings typically last 5-10 years, while amalgam fillings can last 10-15 years or longer with proper care. Regular checkups help monitor filling condition.

Dr. Yang uses local anesthesia to ensure you're comfortable throughout the procedure. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during or after treatment.
