Dental Fillings in Milpitas

Fix Cavities Fast with Tooth-Colored Fillings

Cavities happen—and luckily, fillings are a quick and effective way to stop decay in its tracks and keep your smile strong and healthy. At Milpitas Smile Design, we use natural-looking, tooth-colored fillings that blend right in, so no one will even notice you had dental work done.

When You Might Need a Filling

A dental filling might be right for you if you’re dealing with:

• A chipped or cracked tooth
• Small gaps between teeth
• Tooth decay (cavities)
• Worn-down enamel

Catching these issues early means a simple filling can prevent much more serious dental problems down the road—like infection or root canal treatment.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Filling appointments are usually quick and easy. Depending on the size of the cavity, the visit can take anywhere from 30 minutes to about an hour.

Here’s what happens:

• We’ll start by gently numbing the area with local anesthesia, so you’re comfortable the whole time.
• Then, we’ll remove any decay and place the filling, shaping it to match your natural bite.
• The material is hardened and polished—so you’ll leave with a tooth that looks and feels great.

We use tooth-colored composite materials, so your filling will blend seamlessly with the rest of your smile—no silver or metal spots here!
