Composite Fillings
Natural-Looking Composite Fillings for Cavity Repair
Composite fillings are a modern restorative solution used to repair cavities and minor tooth damage while maintaining the natural appearance of your smile. Made from tooth-colored composite material, these fillings bond directly to the tooth, restoring strength and function without the noticeable look of traditional metal fillings. Composite fillings are designed to blend seamlessly with surrounding teeth, helping preserve both appearance and oral health.
At Harris Family Dentistry, composite fillings are placed with precision and care to ensure comfort, durability, and long-term protection. If you’ve been told you have a cavity or are experiencing tooth sensitivity or discomfort, call Harris Family Dentistry today at (620) 276-7623 to speak with our team and schedule your appointment.
