Frequently Asked Question
Are composite fillings as strong as silver (amalgam) fillings?
Modern composites are highly durable and suitable for most cavities, including back teeth. In some high-pressure situations, we’ll discuss the best material for your specific tooth.
What does BPA-free mean?
BPA (bisphenol A) is a chemical found in some plastics and older dental composites. Our BPA-free materials eliminate this concern for health-conscious patients.
Do you replace old silver fillings?
Yes — using our S.M.A.R.T. certified protocol for safe removal. See our mercury removal page for details.
Is getting a composite filling painful?
We numb the area before treatment. Most patients are comfortably numb within minutes and feel nothing during the procedure.
Is this covered by insurance?
Most PPO plans cover composite fillings on front teeth; coverage for back teeth varies. Call (772) 247-2407 and we’ll review your benefits.
