How are composite fillings done?
After the tooth is prepared by removing decay, Dr. Arnold places the composite material in layers, using a curing light to harden each layer. After the inside of the area is structurally sound, Dr. Arnold will sculpt the composite to match the natural shape and color of your tooth. If you are considering whitening your teeth, we recommend completing the bleaching before placing any new composites on your teeth, since composite material does not bleach.
