How A Tooth-Colored Filling Keeps A Tooth Safe

While you can be happy to have a filling that does not cause cosmetic concerns, you should know that the restoration is also going to provide the necessary functional support. Of course, to make sure your tooth remains protected, you should continue to practice smart oral hygiene habits, and continue going in for regular dental exams. (more…)
