Dental FillingsIn Middletown, CT
Dealing with a cavity not only impacts your ability to chew and speak, but can also hit your confidence and overall wellness. That’s where fillings come in handy. In just one visit, your tooth can be restored to its natural health, so you can start smiling again.
Why should I get a filling?
Cavities are a pain and can only worsen when left untreated. You deserve to have a smile that allows you to chew, speak, eat, and laugh with ease. Fortunately, cavities are simple enough to treat and even easier to prevent. A dental filling can treat cavities in just an hour-long appointment. And by visiting your dentist for regular cleanings and exams every 6 months, we can help you prevent future cavities altogether.
Did you know…
Cavities are common. Nearly 80% of Americans have had at least one before the age of 18.

The cost of treatment shouldn’t keep you from getting the filling you need. We keep care affordable so you can invest in your healthiest smile yet.

The Dental Fillings Treatment Process
What is Perio Protect?
Perio Protect is a non-invasive, at-home treatment that works alongside in-office periodontal care to help manage and prevent gum disease. This system uses custom-fitted trays—called Perio Trays®—designed to deliver a low-concentration hydrogen peroxide gel deep below the gumline. These trays allow medication to reach the bacteria responsible for periodontal disease in places brushing and flossing simply can’t.
Unlike traditional antibiotic treatments or more aggressive surgical options, Perio Protect is gentle, effective, and designed for long-term use as part of your daily routine. The trays are worn for just minutes a day and are FDA-cleared for use in managing periodontal disease.
