Long-Lasting Fillings and Sealants in Burleson, TX

We offer high-quality tooth fillings and tooth sealants to restore and protect your smile. Our dental filling options include composite fillings (tooth-colored), amalgam (silver) and glass ionomer—each selected based on durability, aesthetics and the location of the cavity. Composite fillings are ideal for front teeth or visible areas, blending naturally with your smile.

For prevention, we provide dental sealants that act as a barrier against decay, especially on molars and hard-to-clean surfaces.

Our treatments are affordable, with tooth filling cost and sealant pricing based on the number of treated surfaces. Whether you’re addressing a cavity or preventing one, our expert team delivers durable, comfortable care with long-term results.

Process

Fillings:

To begin, we gently numb the area around the affected tooth to keep you comfortable. We then remove any decayed or damaged material and thoroughly clean the tooth. Once prepped, we fill the space with a durable material—such as composite, amalgam or glass ionomer—shaping and polishing it to blend seamlessly with your natural tooth for a smooth, functional finish.

Sealants:

The process starts with cleaning and drying the teeth to ensure a strong seal. We apply a bonding gel to the grooves of the chewing surfaces, followed by a thin layer of sealant material. A special curing light hardens the sealant, creating a protective barrier that helps prevent cavities—especially in hard-to-reach areas.

Next Steps

Keep Up with Daily Oral Care: Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and floss regularly to help prevent decay around your dental fillings and sealants.

Stay on Top of Dental Visits: Routine checkups let us monitor your fillings and sealants. If needed, we can reapply sealants to keep your smile protected.

Speak Up About Changes: If you feel sensitivity, notice discomfort or see signs of wear or damage, don’t wait—give our office a call so we can assess and make any needed adjustments.

FAQ

  • How do I know if I need a cavity filling?

    You may need a cavity filling if you experience tooth sensitivity, pain when biting, visible holes, or dark spots on your tooth. Regular dental checkups help catch cavities early—often before symptoms appear.

  • Are dental sealants effective for adults?

    Dental sealants can be effective for adults, especially those prone to cavities or with deep grooves in their molars. They help protect hard-to-clean areas and prevent decay, just as they do for children.

  • How long do dental fillings last?

    The longevity of your dental fillings depends on the material used and how well you care for your teeth. Composite (tooth-colored) fillings typically last 5–10 years and are ideal for visible areas. Amalgam (silver) fillings can last even longer, especially in high-pressure chewing zones. Glass ionomer fillings, while not as durable, are often used in less stressed areas or for temporary repairs. With proper oral hygiene and regular checkups, our team can help extend the life of your filling and maintain your long-term dental health.
