Tooth-Colored Dental Fillings in San Marcos, CA

Restore and Protect Your Smile with Metal-Free Dentistry

At San Marcos Dental Center, we believe that restorative dentistry should be both effective and aesthetically pleasing. That’s why we offer tooth-colored dental fillings made from advanced composite materials that blend beautifully with your natural teeth. These fillings provide long-lasting strength and a flawless look—so you can feel confident every time you smile.

Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings

Our composite fillings are designed to restore your teeth without compromising appearance. For larger restorations, Dr. Gregory Hurt DDS may recommend inlays or onlays, which offer greater durability while maintaining a natural look.

Inlays

Best for repairing cavities on the inner chewing surface of the tooth.

Onlays

Ideal for larger areas of damage, covering the biting surface and one or more cusps of the tooth.

Advantages Over Traditional Silver Fillings

Tooth-colored composite fillings offer multiple benefits over outdated silver amalgam fillings:

Aesthetics

The material matches your natural tooth color—no dark spots or metal lines.

Tooth Preservation

Composite fillings bond directly to the tooth, allowing us to preserve more of your healthy structure.

Durability

These fillings flex naturally with your teeth, reducing the risk of future cracks and damage.

Biocompatibility

Composite materials are mercury-free and less likely to cause sensitivity or allergic reactions.

State-of-the-Art Inlays & Onlays in San Marcos

Using the latest dental technology, we craft inlays and onlays that are custom-fitted and color-matched to your natural teeth—delivering strength, function, and beauty
