A cavity doesn't have to mean a noticeable repair. At Hillsboro Dental, tooth-colored fillings restore decayed or fractured teeth quickly and comfortably — and blend right in, for patients across Green Hills and Nashville.
What is a dental filling?
A filling repairs a tooth damaged by decay or a minor fracture. We gently remove the affected area, clean it thoroughly, and fill the space with a durable, tooth-colored composite that restores the tooth's strength and shape.
Why tooth-colored fillings?
- Matched to your natural tooth shade — virtually invisible
- Mercury-free, with no silver or metal
- Bonds directly to the tooth for a strong, conservative repair
- Comfortable and usually completed in a single visit
What to expect
Most fillings take just one short, gentle visit. We numb the area for your comfort, place and shape the filling, and have you back to your day with a tooth that looks and feels natural.
