What are composite fillings?
Despite your efforts to keep teeth clean and healthy, sometimes cavities are unavoidable. Luckily, Dr. Bill Dorfman offers white composite fillings in Century City!
A composite filling is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore teeth that have been damaged by tooth decay. Composites are also used for cosmetic improvements of the smile by changing the color of the teeth or reshaping disfigured teeth.
Direct Versus Inderect Dental Fillings
Direct restorations are for small fillings and can be placed in a single appointment. Indirect restorations are for larger fillings or to replace more tooth structure and require two appointments.
During your first indirect filling appointment, Dr. Dorfman will shape the tooth, take impressions and send them to a dental laboratory while you wear a temporary. You can promptly return for the permanent fillings in about 1 week.
For a direct or indirect dental filling, Dr. Dorfman will administer a local anesthetic to ensure your comfort. He will remove the decayed portion of the tooth, clean the surrounding area, and then fill the cavity.
The Advantages of Tooth-Coloured Fillings
Why choose tooth-colored fillings over other dental treatments?
- Attractive: Tooth-colored fillings portray a convincingly natural look. They’ll fit right in with your real pearly whites.
- Healthy: White fillings are composed of a highly biocompatible material.
- Low Risk: There is a low risk of side effects associated with white fillings. Chances are, you won’t experience an allergic reaction or metal sensitivity.

TESTIMONIALS
What Our Patients Say
I needed a crown in my front tooth and it had to be perfect. Another dentist told me it couldn’t be done without a long and uncomfortable process. I met Dr Dorfman and he confidently told me that he has done this procedure countless times and the process of extraction, bone grafting, will go smoothly with limited time to eventually get my crown. I didn’t hesitate for him to schedule and start the procedure after my consultation. I have to tell you everything went amazing and he got a perfect match. The whole staff at his dental office are incredible people and I can’t say enough about them. As for Dr Dorfman he is the Michael Jordan of dentistry and he really loves his job and cares about his patients. Thanks Again and happy to have you as my dentist.

This is the most professional and welcoming practice I have ever visited! I was referred by a friend for an issue I was having with a crown done elsewhere. I will never see another dentist again! I feel very confident that when I’m done here, my teeth will be perfect!
