Get a Natural-Looking, Metal-Free Filling

We believe your smile should look and feel as natural as possible. That's why we offer metal-free tooth fillings made from a durable, tooth-colored composite material.

This material not only blends in perfectly with your natural teeth but also bonds directly to the tooth structure, for extra strength and support. You'll have a beautiful, seamless result every time.

Using our advanced technology, we can find and treat cavities early. Our DIAGNOdent pen uses a special light to detect even the smallest areas of decay that might be missed with a normal exam. This lets us use a more conservative treatment, saving more of your healthy tooth.

Enjoy a Relaxing & Easy Filling Procedure

Getting a dental filling with us is a straightforward and comfortable process. After numbing you with a local anesthetic, your dentist will gently remove the decayed part of your tooth. Once the area is clean, we will place the filling material into the prepared space. The metal-free filling is then shaped and polished to match the rest of your tooth.

Your comfort is our priority. Our calming staff and comfortable amenities, including blankets, neck pillows, and TVs, will help you feel at ease. If you're anxious, you can receive inhaled sedation with laughing gas or oral sedation with a pill. This ensures your treatment is a pleasant and worry-free experience.

If you need tooth fillings in Lake Jackson, visit Distinctive Dental Services for expert care.

This was the BEST dentist office I had ever been in. It was absolutely wonderful. The people was very pleasant. Very nice. Was very concerned about your comfort and your well-being. They could hold an intelligent conversation with you. Didn't make you feel less than it was. Definitely a one-of-a-kind experience for me. I would advise every single person that I know to go to this dentistry. They are very very welcoming. You will not have a problem in going back to these people. The only sad part about it is I can only give five stars. Love these people! I am so glad that I chose them.

I’ve been a patient with dr. Elrod for 20 plus years. Hands down the best dentist in the country! All the work I’ve had done is the best quality and lasts. I still have some CEREC that have lasted over 20 years. This is the only dentist I’ve been to that I’m actually excited to go to.

Above and beyond exceptional service!! The office is stunning and the staff are exceptional. I'm definitely appreciative of the tour and gift! Very friendly and knowledgeable. They took their time and didn't make me feel like just another patient. Most importantly, I felt comfortable and heard. My only regret is not becoming a new patient sooner. Never had an experience like that at a dental office before! Thank you DDS!

I did an in office teeth whitening appointment. I thought front staff very friendly and my appointment was on time. They actually accommodated an earlier time for me. I am pleased with the results and would definitely recommend this facility! The staff was very friendly and listened to my concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tooth Fillings

What is the process for getting a tooth filling?
First, we will numb the area around your tooth. Then, we'll gently remove the decay from the tooth. After the area is cleaned, we place the filling material and shape it to match your tooth's natural form. We then polish the filling to ensure it is smooth and comfortable.
How long does it take to get a tooth filling?
A tooth filling procedure is generally quick and efficient. Most appointments take about an hour from start to finish. Our team works carefully to ensure your comfort and the quality of the filling. We use digital technology to make the process as seamless as possible, getting you back to your day with a healthy smile.
What are your fillings made of?
We use high-quality, metal-free composite materials for our tooth fillings. This material is not only durable and long-lasting, but it's also a tooth-colored material that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. This means your filling will be virtually invisible, preserving the natural beauty of your smile.
