Hello! Welcome to the La Costa Dental Excellence dental blog. If this your first visit, we hope you find useful information about our outstanding Carlsbad dental practice. If you have read some of our previous articles, we are glad you checked back with us. We post new articles regularly.
We are Stephen and Kimberly Dankworth, DDS. We have been practicing dentistry in Carlsbad since 1988. La Costa Dental Excellence is a full-service dental office located at 7730 Rancho Santa Fe Rd Ste 106 in Carlsbad. In addition to providing comprehensive examinations and deep cleanings for patients in the Encinitas area, we perform all types of tooth restorations.
When a tooth has decay or has been damaged, a dental restoration is needed to ‘restore’ the tooth to its previous intact condition. A dental filling is one of the most common and well-known types of restorations. A dental filling is used to repair decayed or damaged tooth surfaces. Most people have a few fillings in their mouth.
If you have old silver amalgam fillings, we can replace them with nearly invisible fillings that are tooth colored. These fillings are made out of a strong composite resin. Many of our San Marcos CA cosmetic dentistry patients have replaced their old silver fillings with fillings matched to their teeth. You can improve your smile instantly and relatively inexpensively by getting rid of the ‘metal’.
If you would like to replace your amalgam fillings, call us at 760-633-3033 to schedule a consultation. We are currently accepting new patients and would be happy to show you around our Carlsbad dental office and introduce you to our friendly team.
Smile – it increases your face value!
