If your tooth has a small cavity or chip, our dentists will likely suggest the use of a filling to clean out any infection and patch the area to prevent further damage. At Zalatan Dental Modern Dentist, Dr. Justin Zalatan, Dr. Salina Suy and Dr. Briana Hubbard use ACTIVA™ BioACTIVE fillings. BioACTIVE fillings are designed to participate in the natural chemical processes that influence the ecosystem of the mouth. Cycles of ionic exchange between your teeth and saliva regulate the pH and chemistry of the mouth, and BioACTIVE fillings mimic a natural tooth’s role in this process, helping your mouth maintain its natural properties. If you are looking for dental fillings in Utica, New York, please give us a call at 315-724-3197 today to learn more.
