Most of us have had at least one filling in our lives—they are one of the most common restorative dentistry therapies. In keeping with his aesthetic standards for cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Kohler provides patients in his Wilmette office with tooth-colored fillings. He also utilizes air abrasion to gently remove decay, a precise technology that avoids noisy dental drills.
Why Should I Choose Tooth-Colored Fillings?
Composite resin is currently the most popular material for dental fillings. Its advantages over traditional restorations include aesthetics (it blends subtly with teeth and can be contoured more easily than metal), durability, and strength.
In addition to using tooth-colored fillings for new cavities, Dr. Kohler will happily replace your old metal fillings and help restore your youthful smile.
Why Should I Choose Air Abrasion?
For many people, anxiety begins the second the dental office fills with the buzzing noise of a drill. Air abrasion therapy has been a state-of-the-art, drill-less technology. It was used to remove decay without heat, vibration, or sound. Its other advantages include:
- Reduces the risk of fracturing or chipping
- Can minimize the need for anesthesia
- Allows for more complex, multiple-site treatments in one session
