Why Puslinch patients ask about composite fillings

We check the size of the repair, the bite, and the health of the tooth nerve before recommending a filling.

Diagnosis and shade planning
We examine the tooth, review x-rays when needed, and choose a composite shade that blends with the surrounding tooth.
Prepare the tooth
Decay, rough edges, or damaged filling material are removed, and the tooth is prepared for bonding.
Place the composite
Tooth-colored material is bonded in layers, shaped to restore the missing area, and hardened.
Polish and check the bite
We smooth the filling, refine the shape, and check that your bite feels comfortable before you leave.
