Dental Fillings
Swift Dental Fillings at Able Dental of New Port Richey
Even with excellent dental hygiene, cavities can still develop. It's important to address even small cavities promptly, as untreated decay can deepen and eventually require more extensive treatments like crowns, root canals, or extractions.
Our cutting-edge detection tools, advanced technology, and natural-looking materials provide a comfortable and efficient experience. We also offer inlays and onlays for larger areas of decay and bonding treatments for cosmetic issues such as chips and cracks.
Differences Between Fillings, Bonding, Inlays, and Onlays
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings primarily address health concerns by treating and preventing decay, but they also offer cosmetic benefits.
Dental Bonding
Bonding is a cosmetic procedure that involves directly applying materials to your tooth to enhance its color and shape. It is considered a durable and cost-effective alternative to veneers.
Inlays and Onlays
An inlay is a solid piece used to fill cavities that are too large for a standard filling. In contrast, an onlay is larger than an inlay but smaller than a crown. It covers the entire cusp of the tooth, rather than just filling the space in between.
