Restore and Protect Your Child’s Smile with Natural-Looking Fillings
At Pediatric Dentistry of Reston, we understand how important your child’s smile is to their confidence and overall health. When cavities or small chips appear, Drs. Neda Kalantar, Zaidi and Fernandes offer gentle, effective treatment using tooth-colored fillings designed specifically for kids.
Located in Reston, VA, our pediatric dental office uses safe, modern materials to restore teeth while preserving a natural appearance. These cosmetic fillings blend seamlessly with your child’s smile and help prevent future dental problems.
What Are Tooth-Colored Fillings?
Tooth-colored fillings are made from a durable composite resin that closely matches the shade of your child’s natural teeth. Unlike traditional silver (amalgam) fillings, composite fillings offer both cosmetic and functional benefits. They are ideal for small to moderate cavities, especially in visible areas like the front teeth.
Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings for Children
- Natural appearance that blends in with surrounding teeth
- Mercury-free and BPA-safe materials
- Minimally invasive placement that preserves healthy tooth structure
- Strong and long-lasting for daily chewing and speaking
- Less sensitivity than metal fillings in many cases
Dr. Neda customizes the shade and shape of each filling to ensure it fits your child’s bite and matches their smile. The process is quick and comfortable, with most children returning to normal activity the same day.
When Does a Child Need a Filling?
Fillings are used to repair teeth that have been damaged by:
- Tooth decay (cavities)
- Minor chips or fractures
- Worn enamel or pitting
- Previous fillings that need replacement
Early treatment prevents cavities from spreading and helps avoid more invasive procedures in the future. During your child’s exam, we’ll take digital X-rays and perform a gentle evaluation to determine the best treatment plan.
