Fillings in Kansas City & Gladstone

We offer several types of fillings. Each type of filling has advantages and disadvantages. Some might be more fitting for your situation than others. When you visit our office, we’ll help you discern which filling is right for each area of tooth decay.

A filling is used to repair a tooth that is affected by decay, cracks, fractures and other misuse. The affected portion of the tooth will be removed and filled with the appropriate filling.

Composite Fillings

Composite fillings are the most widely used today. Because composite fillings are tooth colored, they can be closely matched to the color of existing teeth, and are more aesthetically suited for use in front teeth or the more visible areas of the teeth.
