At Q Family Dental in Tigard, we offer both composite and amalgam fillings to restore teeth that have been damaged by cavities or wear. Composite fillings are made from a tooth-colored resin that blends seamlessly with your natural tooth, making them an excellent option for visible areas. Amalgam fillings, made from a durable metal alloy, are strong and ideal for back teeth that experience heavy pressure from chewing. Both types provide effective solutions, depending on your specific needs.
Choosing between composite and amalgam fillings depends on the location of the cavity and your personal preferences. Composite fillings are ideal for teeth that are visible when you smile, while amalgam fillings are perfect for areas that require more durability, like molars. Our team at Q Family Dental will work with you to understand your needs and recommend the best option for restoring your teeth, ensuring both function and appearance are prioritized.
