You know that there are a few things you’ll need to do if you’re interested in protecting your oral health. For example, you probably know that it’s important for you to brush and floss regularly. Similarly, you may have heard that you should visit your dentist once every six months—and that some people may need to consider sedation dentistry to help them make these visits. Still, did you know that sedation dentistry can be useful for a number of other patients as well?

Does one of your teeth have a cavity (decay)? A dental filling in Jackson, Mississippi, may be just what you need. Dr. Alex Abernathy will remove the tooth decay and fill the area with the dental filling material. This will restore the strength and function of the tooth. At our office, we provide composite dental fillings, which are tooth colored. Our dentist can select a shade of composite material that will match the color of your natural teeth.
