Since the 1960s, tooth-colored fillings have been used to fill cavities in anterior teeth. New developments in dental technology and materials have produced compounds that make it possible to replace silver fillings with composite resin. Your entire smile can now look natural with this cosmetic dental treatment.

Tooth-colored fillings, or composite fillings, have long been used in front teeth, but early materials did not have the durability or strength to be used in molars or large fillings. Thanks to advancements in the dental field, this is no longer the case. Many patients are opting to replace silver amalgam fillings with composites for aesthetic reasons.

Composite fillings can be tinted to match your tooth color exactly. The materials used in today’s composites provide a stronger bond to the natural tooth, and the finished product is smooth and slick in your mouth, just like your natural teeth.

Before, a wide-open laugh, singing, yawning or anytime your mouth was wide open, dental work on the back teeth could easily be seen. For some, this meant several teeth with silver fillings. Now those fillings can be replaced with composite fillings that match your natural tooth color, and no matter how wide you open your mouth, no dental work will show.

What is a Composite Resin?

Composite resin is a combination of ceramic or glass and plastic. Several manufacturers of these materials have produced a wide variety of composites, each with its advantages. A curing light is used with some resins to harden the material. They are placed in layers with light being used on each layer to harden the resin and bond it to the tooth structure.

A major advantage of composite resin is that these materials do not require as much prepping of the tooth as amalgam fillings. More of the natural tooth structure is left intact. Once set and cured, the resin is trimmed and polished to a high gloss. This gives the filling a natural look and feel.

Engineered Smiles is committed to helping our patients achieve their healthiest and most beautiful smiles. Schedule an appointment to consult with Dr. Wang about replacing your silver fillings with natural-looking composite fillings.

    Absolutely love this place, I’ve been coming here for the last two years. I didn’t have insurance when I first started, and they had a great payment plan that they were able to let me work with. I see Jennifer, and she is the absolute best! Dr. Wang and his entire staff have always been extremely friendly and helpful. I will continue coming back to this location for years to come come!

    Like most people I don't particularly enjoy going to the dentist. The staff, hygienists, and Dr. Wang himself make this practice the best one I have ever gone to. I have been I patient for over a year now. I recently made the decision to get a filling from another dentist redone. That filling had me terrified because my last dentist didn't properly prep me. I told Dr. Wang and he listened very attentively and took the necessary steps to make sure I was properly numbed and fixed my filling and I didn't feel a thing! The shop itself is very clean and organized. It's and old Bank building and they cleverly used the value for the X-ray room. A big shout out to Jennifer for being great and very gentle with my cleanings. Also, the office manager Autumn, for always working with insurance for me and getting the financials as low as possible without me having to ask. I have recommended several people to this practice and all have had great experiences and continue to go back. This practice is absolutely worth checking out!

    Dr. Wang and his amazing technology create incredible results. I have had an implant and a crown and they are perfect replicas of my original teeth, only healthy. Also, the work was efficient and practically pain free!! He and his support staff are all kind and gentle. This practice is highly recommended both by me and by my husband!

    Dr Wang went above and beyond to make sure I thoroughly understood his proposed treatment plan for a front tooth implant. He spent almost an hour on the phone with me addressing all my questions and concerns and outlining his reasons for choosing a particular method or timeline. He was patient and specific. The following day he spent even more of his time demonstrating some of the incredible technology he would be using to ensure success of the procedure. He is incredibly smart and his engineering knowledge seems to be coming in handy!! Wonderful dentist with a broad range of talent!

    I’ve continued to use Dr. Wang as my dentist for several years and have always been more than happy with him. His staff is excellent and Jennifer, my dental hygienist, was friendly and did a great job. Dr Wang is always thorough and takes the time to answer all the questions I have - I trust him and continue to refer friends, family and coworkers to him and they have always been happy to say the least!

    Margo W.

    I could not get my regular dentist and Dr Wang popped up on Google as if by magic! I have a severe phobia about dentists but the glowing reviews about Dr Wang and his staff gave me courage to make that call after years of putting off the dentist. I was still anxious as I arrived for my appointment (I would not have gone but for the pain I was in) Dr. Wang was so personable cheerful and took his time explaining the procedure. He was very gentle. Even though I can't remember their names I can't say enough about his staff who displayed the same patience and encouragement. No one has paid me to do this review. It's all my true feelings. Dr Wang you have a patient for life in me
