"In the interests of the health and well-being of our patients, these are the only ones we use in our office." - Milpitas Cosmetic Dentist, Dr. Peter Yu, DDS

As a dentist who has experience with these new materials, Dr. Yu can remove any older fillings you have and replace them with these healthier options. No more unsightly metal fillings to detract from the attractiveness of your smile; just a beautiful, natural smile!

Cosmetic dentistry really combines natural beauty with health. Metal-free fillings do this by combining naturalness of appearance with durability, strength and function. One of the main advantages of metal-free fillings beyond their natural appearance is that they do not corrode over time.

An experienced dentist like Dr. Yu also ensures that the composite resin is bonded to the surface without open areas between the tooth structure and the resin sealant. This sealing effectively stops any leakage of bacteria to prevent further decay. Metal-free fillings also protect your teeth from fracturing or breaking because they don't expand with temperature like metal fillings can.

Composite material can be shaped and colored to match your natural teeth. Our qualified dentist Dr. Yu will prepare the tooth for the filling by removing any decay, and then skillfully applying the composite. The latest technology is used to cure and harden the bonding material to the correct depth and strength.

As a dentist highly trained with TMJ treatment and the importance of maintaining a stable bite, you can be confident that your filling will be precise and comfortable.

Metal-free fillings by Dr. Yu also last longer, without discoloring over time. Our team puts your care first to ensure a straight-forward, painless and convenient dental experience - usually a single easy visit.
