A Visit to the Burnaby Dentist for Composite Fillings in British Columbia

Composite Fillings Burnaby, BCA visit for composite fillings is similar to a visit for traditional amalgam dental fillings. Our Burnaby dentist will prepare your teeth by removing any decay before applying the filling material. However, the application process for composite fillings is quite different. The resin material is applied in layers. As each new layer is applied, our Burnaby dentist uses a special dental curing light to bond the resin directly to the tooth structure and previous layers. Once all of the layers of the composite fillings have been placed, the tooth is then shaped to fit your bite and polished to prevent staining.
