Restoring Strength and Health to Your Teeth

Understanding Dental Fillings

When tooth decay creates small openings in the dental enamel, dental fillings restore the tooth's strength and help prevent further damage. At Eddie Kao DDS, we provide dental fillings in Tustin, dental fillings in West Covina, tooth-colored fillings in Tustin, and tooth-colored fillings in West Covina using durable, natural-looking materials that blend seamlessly with your smile.

During treatment, Dr. Kao carefully removes the decayed portion of the tooth and restores it with a composite resin filling that closely matches your natural tooth color. Most cavity treatment procedures can be completed in a single appointment, allowing you to preserve your tooth's health, function, and appearance for years to come.

Modern and Aesthetic Dental Procedures

Our Dental Filling Options

We use advanced materials to ensure your restoration blends perfectly with your smile and supports long-term durability:

• Tooth-colored composite fillings – Made from composite resin that bonds securely to the tooth for strength and aesthetics.
• Porcelain fillings (Inlays/Onlays) – Custom-made for strength and aesthetics, ideal for larger restorations or areas exposed to high bite pressure.
• Glass ionomer fillings – Used in select cases for added fluoride protection, helping prevent future decay, especially in younger patients.

Each restoration is carefully selected to provide the ideal balance of durability, comfort, and appearance while supporting long-term restorative dentistry.

Gentle Care, Lasting Results

What to Expect After Treatment

Following your dental filling, you may notice mild sensitivity that typically improves within a few days. Our team will provide personalized aftercare instructions to help protect your restored tooth and maintain your oral health, including:

• Avoiding extremely hot or cold foods for the first 24 hours.
• Brushing and flossing daily to help prevent future dental cavities and tooth decay.
• Scheduling regular checkups for continued maintenance and care.

At Eddie Kao DDS, our goal is to restore your smile with precision and care, giving you the confidence to eat, speak, and smile comfortably.
