In the past, cavities could only be treated with unsightly amalgam fillings. These fillings, especially when close to the front of the mouth, are highly noticeable and look nothing like natural, healthy teeth. Sometimes, the filling is so large that it causes discoloration of the entire tooth. Fortunately, though, amalgam fillings are now a thing of the past. Dr. Boyd provides composite fillings to replace amalgam restorations.

Tooth colored fillings are made of durable resin or porcelain and can be bonded to your teeth to permanently and effectively treat cavities.
