Fortunately, cavities can be effectively treated through dental fillings. At the office of Mark H. Wright, D.D.S. in Colorado Springs, Colorado, we use composite restoration fillings to treat cavities and protect your teeth from future decay.
There are numerous advantages of composite fillings over traditional amalgam fillings for cavity treatment.

The cost of composite filling treatment depends on the number of cavities that need to be filled. At the office of Mark H. Wright, D.D.S., we offer affordable cavity treatment to preserve the integrity of your smile.
