Are you experiencing sudden tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold foods, visible holes in your teeth, or discomfort when biting down? These are common symptoms of dental cavities, which occur when bacteria erode your tooth enamel and create decay. At Futch Dental, we offer tooth-colored dental fillings to restore affected teeth, eliminating pain while preserving your natural smile’s appearance. For cavities that have progressed significantly and caused extensive damage to the tooth structure, our gentle tooth extraction services may be necessary to prevent infection from spreading and to relieve your discomfort. Don’t ignore tooth pain – early treatment with dental fillings can help you avoid more invasive procedures and protect your long-term oral health.

Timely dental fillings provide numerous benefits
Dental fillings are restorative treatments designed to repair teeth affected by decay (cavities), minor fractures, or wear. During the procedure, Dr. Futch removes the damaged portion of your tooth and fills the area with a durable material that restores the tooth’s structure, function, and appearance.
Dental fillings are a common type of restorative dentistry treatment that helps repair cavities or fix minor chips and cracks in your teeth. By addressing these issues promptly, fillings prevent further damage and decay, helping you maintain your natural teeth for as long as possible.
At Futch Dental, we offer multiple filling options to meet your specific needs and preferences:
Our most popular option, tooth-colored composite fillings, provide both functional and aesthetic benefits:
Composite fillings are designed to match the color of your natural teeth, providing a seamless, virtually invisible restoration.
Composite fillings bond directly to your tooth, allowing us to preserve more healthy tooth structure during the preparation process.
Ideal for both front and back teeth, these fillings can also be used for cosmetic improvements such as repairing minor chips or closing small gaps.
Composite fillings contain no mercury or metal components, making them an excellent choice for patients with metal sensitivities or those concerned about amalgam.
For specific situations, glass ionomer fillings offer unique benefits:
Glass ionomer fillings release fluoride, which helps prevent recurrent decay around the filling.
Ideal for children or for fillings below the gumline.
Getting a dental filling at Futch Dental is a comfortable, efficient process:
Dr. Futch will thoroughly examine your tooth, often using digital X-rays to assess the extent of damage or decay. Our advanced digital imaging technology allows us to capture high-quality images with minimal radiation exposure, ensuring a safer and quicker dental visit.
We’ll discuss your options and recommend the most appropriate filling material based on the location of the tooth, extent of decay, aesthetic concerns, and your personal preferences.
Your comfort is our priority. We’ll ensure you’re completely numb before gently removing any decayed or damaged tooth structure. With Dr. Futch’s “I got this” attitude and genuine interest in his patients, you can trust that he’ll make the experience as comfortable as possible.
For composite fillings, Dr. Futch will apply the material in layers, hardening each layer with a special curing light. The filling is then shaped and polished to match your natural bite and tooth contours.
We’ll check your bite to ensure the filling feels comfortable and natural, making any necessary adjustments for a perfect fit.
Dr. Futch brings over 30 years of dental experience to every procedure, having practiced dentistry since 1990. His advanced training at the Dawson Academy and the OBI Foundation for Bioesthetic Dentistry has further enhanced his skills in restorative dentistry.
