Natural-looking protection for your smile
Cavities are common, but treating them doesn’t have to mean noticeable silver fillings. At Cusp Dental, we offer Chicago dental fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Whether you’re treating a new cavity or replacing old metal fillings, we’re here to restore your smile.
Our team uses durable composite materials designed to match the color of your teeth so no one will notice your filling and you can smile with confidence.
What happens if you don’t get a filling?
- Decay will continue to spread: Cavities don’t heal on their own — without treatment, they will only get worse.
- Pain and sensitivity may increase: As decay reaches deeper layers of the tooth, discomfort will likely become more noticeable.
- Risk of infection or abscess: Untreated cavities can allow bacteria to reach the pulp, leading to infections that may require a root canal.
- More extensive treatment may be needed: The longer a cavity is left untreated, the more complex and costly the solution may become.
A gentle, modern approach to care
We understand that going to the dentist can be stressful, which is why our team focuses on creating a calm, comfortable experience. Using precise techniques and high-quality materials, we ensure your fillings are functional and beautifully crafted to match your unique smile.

Common questions about Chicago dental fillings
-
Are tooth-colored fillings as durable as silver fillings?
Yes! Today’s composite materials are highly durable and built to withstand everyday chewing and biting. With proper care, they can last for many years.
-
Can you replace my old metal fillings?
Absolutely. We can safely remove silver (amalgam) fillings and replace them with natural-looking composite fillings that blend in with your teeth.
-
Do tooth-colored fillings stain?
Composite fillings are resistant to staining, though maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding excessive staining foods and drinks will help them last even longer.
-
Is getting a filling painful?
Not at all! We use gentle techniques and anxiety-free dental injections to ensure you’re comfortable throughout the procedure.
-
How do I know if I need a filling?
Tooth sensitivity, pain when chewing, or visible holes in your teeth may be signs of a cavity. Regular check-ups help us catch issues early before they become painful.
