Once we remove the decay from a tooth, we thoroughly clean and disinfect the area. The composite resin is then placed layer by layer. Every layer is hardened with the use of a curing light, and then the next layer is applied. As we work, our dentists sculpt the resin to conform to the natural shape of the tooth. When satisfied with the appearance, the final layer is hardened, and the tooth is polished. Now your tooth is free of decay, healthy, and has an invisible restoration.
