Replacing an Old Leaking Filling, Plano, TX***

During a routine patient exam Dr. Tim Nguyen noticed this filling that appeared much darker. Fillings can sometimes get stain around them like teeth can get stained, but sometimes like in this case, the filling was actually leaking and had gotten decay underneath it. Luckily we caught it early and were able to replace it before it damaged the tooth, and Dr. Tim Nguyen was able to achieve a more esthetic result by blending in different shades of tooth colored filling material.
