We help combat tooth decay in Burbank and repair teeth whether your cavity comes from cracked or bad teeth or you are in need of replacing old amalgam fillings with the best quality tooth colored composites
Tooth decay is the destruction ofthe outer surface of your tooth called the enamel. It is a problem for every person no matter your age and it should be prevented or filled before something more harmful occurs, such as infection or extraction. Plaque, which causes deterioration of the enamel, is a sticky film of bacteria that is constantly forming on your teeth. The sugar you eat combines with the bacteria which produce acids that attack your teeth. The stickiness of the plaque keeps this acid in contact with your teeth and will eventually break down your enamel, causing cavities, which will need to be corrected with cavity fillings.
