Longmont, CO Tooth Fillings Provide Beautiful Smile Repair

Say no to unsightly metal fillings! Silver Leaf Dentistry’s Longmont, CO tooth fillings will repair your smile and look natural at the same time. Dr. Wallin exclusively uses tooth-colored composite material to repair cavities. Until relatively recently, metal fillings had been the standard restorative dentistry option to repair cavities. Tooth-colored fillings offer many advantages, however, because they are:

  • Non-Toxic – Composite fillings do not contain any mercury or other heavy metals.
  • Discreet – Dr. Wallin will color-match your fillings to your other teeth, so no one will notice your fillings.
  • Minimally Invasive – Compared to metal fillings, tooth-colored fillings allow us to retain more of your natural tooth enamel.
  • Fast-Hardening – Because tooth-colored fillings are fully hardened by the time you leave our office, you can start chewing normally right after your appointment.
  • Durable – Composite resin fillings will last for several years without any special care.

If you need a tooth filled, call us today to schedule an appointment: 720-504-2539. We’re conveniently located just a few blocks from Burlington Elementary School. For your convenience, we’re open as early as 7 a.m.

Keep Your Mouth Free From Painful Cavities

Tooth decay can often go unnoticed until it starts causing discomfort. Cavities can also cause these symptoms:

  • Sensitivity to certain foods and drinks
  • Tooth discoloration
  • Food becoming stuck on the surface of your teeth

At Silver Leaf Dentistry, we aim to find cavities while they are still small so we can minimize the amount of dental treatment needed. That’s one reason it’s important to see Dr. Wallin for regular dental cleanings and exams.

If too much of your natural tooth structure has been lost to decay, Dr. Wallin may recommend a dental crown. Your dental crown will completely cap the damaged tooth, protecting it and giving it a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Our Longmont, CO tooth fillings will repair dental damage and blend in seamlessly with your smile. Call us today at 720-504-2539 to schedule an appointment.

“I have a major fear of the dentist but at Silverleaf I feel more relaxed than ever before. The waiting area is like sitting at home, the Netflix while being worked on is a great distraction, and everyone there is so understanding, helpful, caring and kind.  I need a lot of work done and no one ever made me feel like I was a bad person for waiting as long …” Read More – Amanda
“Incredibly friendly staff. They talked me through everything they were doing and made sure I was comfortable at all times. They were also very flexible with their schedule and allowed me to stay and have my teeth fixed the same day as my cleaning.” – Angela
“Too many dentists now are part of big corporate chains that seem not to much connection with their patients. I like this dentist more every time I come back.  Everyone is really friendly and positive even early in the morning. Being that it had been years since I regularly went to the dentist, I am still fascinated with all the new and modern technologies used at this office to provide …” Read More – Evan
“Dr Wallin is great with children, he has cared for all 4 of mine, and emphasizes not only how but why they should take care of their teeth, showing them the X-rays and pictures and communicating directly with them. It really helps them to feel responsible! The office hours make it easy to get an appointment, and Amy at the front desk is so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.” – J.S.

“I had to find a dentist I could afford to have a lot of work done with.  Silver Leaf was able to help me with financing so I didn’t have to chose between my house and my teeth.  The staff is wonderful and caring.  I have had great dentists in my life, but none compare.  Everyone I spend time with from Amy at the front to the assistants and Dr. …” Read More – Lynn
“I am always pretty skeptical about finding a new dentist because I am familiar with this field, having worked in dentistry in the past. I felt pretty good when I walked into the office, not only be welcomed by Dr. Wallin himself, but to see such a beautiful office. I was here for a general cleaning, and exam. This took all of about an hour and a half, which is …” Read More – Megan
“The entire staff here are very nice and competent. My daughter and I just went for our check-up and cleaning today. My daughter finished sooner than I did and they set her up with a movie and headphones.

Common Questions About Tooth Fillings

What are white tooth fillings made of?

Our white fillings are made out of composite resin, a blend of ceramic and plastic. We can match the color of these materials to your other teeth so they will look completely natural in your smile. Unlike amalgam (metal) fillings, white fillings don’t contain mercury. So they’re a good choice for patients who prefer to avoid mercury.

How long do tooth fillings last?

Tooth fillings can be made from a variety of different materials. At Silver Leaf Dentistry, we use tooth-colored fillings made from composite resin. Not only will they last for an average of five to seven years, but they also blend in beautifully with the rest of your teeth. They won’t stand out like metal fillings can.

Are tooth fillings painful?

Getting a tooth filled does not have to be a painful experience. Your dentist and staff at Silver Leaf Dentistry will make sure that your procedure goes smoothly and comfortably. We’ll use a local anesthetic before starting to ensure that the area around the tooth is completely numb so you don’t feel pain.

Which tooth fillings are safe?

All dental fillings are safe for most patients. However, some studies have raised concerns about the long-term health impact of mercury, which is used in amalgam fillings. Both the FDA and the American Dental Association say mercury in fillings is safe. However, mercury isn’t a concern at all with our composite fillings.
