Ceramic Fillings
Why needed? You have lost tooth structure, from either tooth decay and/or a fracture, and require it to be repaired.
Will it hurt? It’s very unlikely you will feel my injection. Honed over the past 15 years, I’ve mastered the painless injection technique. Also, I use the most advanced anesthetics on the market, so less shots are even needed.
A little dental secret I’ll let you in on. Fillings are one of the most difficult dental procedures to do well. Achieving a “passing” a grade is easy. Doing them awesome takes time, techniques, and technology that many dentists, unfortunately, don’t care to invest in. The reason is simple: Insurance companies pay the bare minimum for fillings. So more than likely, you are getting exactly that. I don’t have the ethical latitude to compromise my work. So, I just do the absolute best for everyone.
As for filling options, I only use ceramic-based biocompatible materials, made by the German company, Voco.
