Colorado Springs Composite Fillings For Chipped Teeth: Dental Treatment Update
Dec 15, 2022
Bear Creek Dental Center (+1-719-633-2828) in Colorado Springs, CO recently updated its composite filling treatment. The practice also offers examinations, cleanings, restorations, and cosmetic and preventative dentistry.
Colorado Springs,United States - December 15, 2022 /PressCable/ —
The composite filling treatment addresses several dental issues including chipped teeth, unwanted space between teeth, cracked or broken teeth, decayed teeth, and worn teeth. Although amalgam (silver) fillings are still widely used, composite fillings have become the preferred option because they can be closely matched to the color of natural teeth.

Composite fillings at Bear Creek Dental Center are a mixture of plastic (acrylic) resin reinforced with powdered glass filler. Though not a permanent solution, composite fillings are very durable and can last anywhere from 7-10 years with good oral hygiene practices, healthy eating habits, and regular check-ups.
Generally speaking, most composite fillings are placed in one appointment. The dentist starts by numbing the affected area with local anesthesia. They then remove decay as necessary and thoroughly clean the space to be filled. If the decay was near the nerve of the tooth, medication is applied to prevent infection. The filling is then placed, shaped, and polished so it blends in seamlessly with the surrounding teeth.
Following a composite filling procedure, it is normal for patients to experience sensitivity to hot and cold as the tooth acclimates to the new filling. Bear Creek Dental Center’s team provides care instructions to help cope with any post-treatment pain or discomfort.
In addition to composite fillings, Bear Creek Dental Center also provides x-rays, fluoride treatments, tooth whitening, crowns, bridges, veneers, root canals, and dentures, among other services.
Since 2001, Bear Creek Dental Center has been owned and operated by Dr. Jessie Mastin. After earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Tennessee in Memphis in 1991, he went on to serve in the United States Army. Upon his discharge in 1996, he began his career in dentistry, starting as an associate at Bear Creek Dental Center before eventually buying the practice five years later. Dr. Mastin is an active member of the Colorado Dental Association, Colorado Springs Dental Society, and American Dental Association.
Bear Creek Dental Center partners with most insurance providers and are currently accepting new patients.
