How we use BPA-free, tooth-colored materials to repair your smile without compromising aesthetics.

How we use BPA-free, tooth-colored materials to repair your smile without compromising aesthetics.

Damage to a tooth doesn’t have to mean the end of a natural-looking smile. Modern restorative dentistry allows us to repair decay and fractures so seamlessly, no one needs to know you had work done.

At Middletown Dental Center, Dr. Ehsani practices "conservative dentistry." This means we prioritize saving as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. We don't just patch holes; we rebuild the strength and integrity of your tooth using advanced biomimetic materials.

The End of "Metal Mouth"

For decades, silver amalgam fillings were the standard. While functional, they required removing significant amounts of healthy tooth to stay in place, and they often caused cracks over time due to temperature expansion.

We have moved past that era. We exclusively use BPA-free, composite resin for our fillings.

  • Aesthetics: The material is color-matched to your specific tooth shade, making the restoration virtually invisible.

  • Bonding Strength: Unlike metal which sits in the tooth, composite bonds to the tooth, restoring its original structural integrity.

  • Health: Our materials are non-toxic and mercury-free, aligning with our whole-body approach to health.

Custom Crowns & Bridges

When a tooth is too damaged for a simple filling, a crown acts as a protective "cap." However, not all crowns are created equal. In high-volume clinics, crowns can sometimes look opaque or "chicklet-like."

Dr. Ehsani partners with top-tier dental laboratories to fabricate crowns that mimic the translucency and light-reflection of real enamel. whether you need a single crown or a bridge to replace a missing tooth, the result is a restoration that feels natural in your bite and looks natural in your smile.

The Comfort of Familiar Care

Restorative work can make some patients nervous. Because we are a small, family-run practice, you won't be passed around to different associates. Dr. Ehsani personally handles your restoration from the initial numbing to the final polish, ensuring your bite is perfect before you leave the chair.

Do you have old metal fillings or tooth sensitivity? You don't have to live with discomfort or dark spots in your smile. Contact us to discuss your restorative options.
