Tooth-Colored Fillings in Ann Arbor, MI
Tooth-colored fillings repair cavities and minor damage while blending seamlessly with your natural teeth for a healthier, more natural-looking smile.
What Are Tooth-Colored Fillings?
Tooth-colored fillings are made from composite resin materials designed to repair cavities while matching the natural color of your teeth. Unlike traditional metal fillings, composite fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, restoring strength while maintaining a natural appearance. They are commonly used for cavities, small fractures, or replacing older metal fillings.
At Gasior Gasior Family Dentistry in Ann Arbor, MI, tooth-colored fillings are carefully placed to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible. The material is shaped and polished for a smooth, natural finish, helping restore both function and aesthetics in a single visit.

Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings
Discover why tooth-colored fillings are trusted for restoring teeth while preserving a natural smile.
Natural Appearance
Tooth-colored fillings blend with surrounding teeth, keeping restorations discreet and natural-looking.
Strong Tooth Support
The composite material bonds directly to the tooth, helping restore strength and stability.
Preserves More Tooth Structure
Less tooth removal is often needed compared to traditional metal fillings.
Who Benefits from Tooth-Colored Fillings?
Tooth-colored fillings are ideal for patients with cavities, minor cracks, or worn areas who want a natural-looking repair. They are suitable for both front and back teeth and are often chosen by patients seeking metal-free restorations.
Patients replacing older fillings or addressing new decay can benefit from this conservative treatment option. A dental evaluation helps determine if tooth-colored fillings are the best solution based on oral health and bite function.
Technology That Supports Tooth-Colored Fillings
Modern composite materials and bonding techniques allow tooth-colored fillings to be placed with precision and durability. Advanced curing lights ensure proper hardening for long-lasting performance.
At Gasior Family Dentistry, careful technique and attention to detail help ensure fillings fit comfortably, function properly, and maintain a natural appearance over time.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Your visit begins with an exam to assess the affected tooth. Any decay is removed, and the composite material is applied, shaped, and polished. The result is a restored tooth that looks natural and functions comfortably, often completed in one appointment.
