Tooth Fillings and Sealants in Twin Falls, ID
Fillings and sealants are essential services for maintaining a healthy, cavity-free smile. Fillings repair teeth damaged by decay, restoring their function and appearance. We use composite fillings, which blend seamlessly with natural teeth for a flawless finish. Due to their durability and aesthetic appeal, composite fillings are an excellent choice for both anterior (front) and posterior (back) teeth.
Sealants, on the other hand, are preventative measures applied to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth. They act as a barrier, protecting these vulnerable areas from bacteria and plaque buildup. Sealants are especially beneficial for children and teenagers, as their newly erupted permanent teeth are more susceptible to cavities.
