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.
