Resin – Improving the Appearance of Your Smile

Almost everyone will need to have a filling in their teeth at some point in their life. Many of us still have silver fillings from yesteryear. Rapid City cosmetic dentist Dr. Loftus uses resin to repair everything from small cavities to chips in front teeth. Resin is a very effective way to treat a variety of dental imperfections.

Like veneers,resin can be used to greatly improve the appearance of front teeth. For many who cost is a concern, resin can save time and money but it does have a down side. They are not as strong as porcelain veneers, and require repairs every few years. Resin can discolor over time, and does not have as much natural beauty as porcelain veneers. When teeth are filled with resin rather than metal, the tooth maintains it’s natural beauty.  Silver fillings are a thing of the past. Resin allows patients to smile without worry that someone will see their dental imperfections.
