White Fillings
Does your smile have ugly metal fillings? Are you worried about mercury concerns? Dr. Ryan understands the cosmetic and health concerns associated with metal fillings. His solution for you? Composite resin fillings. These tooth-colored fillings can be placed in new cavities and they can replace old metal fillings. So even if you've lived with a mouthful of metal since your youth, today you can reclaim an all-white, mercury-free smile!
White fillings require only one visit to our dental office. We'll make you comfortable, gently remove your tooth decay or existing filling, and restore the cavity with a custom-shaded liquid resin. Dr. Ryan will harden the liquid with a soft curing light, then sculpt the filling to fit well with your bite. It's as simple as that!
Schedule Your Appointment
Tooth decay can spread between teeth and even destroy a tooth's nerve if left untreated. Dr. Ryan uses DIAGNOdent laser cavity detection to find decay in the earliest stages, so to avoid big problems later, keep up with your bi-annual checkups and cleanings. Make an appointment with Dr. Ryan by calling North Creek Dental Care in Tinley Park. We serve patients from Frankfort, Oak Forest, and Orland Park, as well.
