Dental Fillings in Encino, CA

Restore Your Tooth with a Filling

Cavities are one of the most common dental issues and can affect individuals of all ages, from young children to seniors. When cavities develop, prompt treatment is essential to restore your tooth and prevent further damage. At Encino Cosmetic Dentistry, we offer effective cavity treatments using tooth-colored composite fillings.

What is a Cavity?

Throughout the day, plaque and bacteria naturally accumulate on your teeth. These substances produce acids that can erode your tooth's protective enamel. Over time, this erosion creates weak spots that develop into cavities. Once cavities form, they cannot reverse and can grow larger, compromising the tooth’s strength and increasing the risk of infection. A common solution for treating cavities is a dental filling.

Composite Fillings

Composite fillings offer a modern solution for restoring teeth affected by cavities. Made from a tooth-colored resin, these fillings:


  • Blend Naturally: The material mimics the appearance of your natural teeth, making it ideal for visible areas.
  • Metal-Free: Contains no mercury or metals, reducing allergy risks.


Procedure for Composite Fillings:


  • The tooth is cleaned, and decay is removed.
  • An acid etch is applied to create a rough texture for better bonding.
  • Composite resin is placed, cured with a special light, and carefully finished to ensure a smooth surface.
