Dental Fillings
Cavities happen. They’re one of the most common dental problems people deal with — and there’s no reason to feel bad about it. What matters is getting it fixed before it turns into something bigger.
At Family First Dental, we use tooth-colored composite fillings that match your natural teeth. No silver patches. No metal. Just a strong, seamless repair that blends right in — and most people won’t even notice it’s there.
Cavities don’t stop growing on their own. A small one that’s easy to fix today can get deep enough to need a dental crown — or even root canal treatment — if you let it sit. And the bigger the fix, the more it costs.
Most dental fillings take 30 to 60 minutes and aren’t nearly as scary as people expect. We numb the area first, and a lot of patients are surprised by how straightforward the whole thing is.
We use composite resin at Family First Dental. Here’s why that matters to most patients:
Getting a filling at Family First Dental is pretty simple:
You can eat normally once the numbing wears off — usually within a couple of hours.
Composite fillings typically hold up for 5 to 10 years, sometimes longer with good care. At your regular dental cleaning appointments, Dr. Stout checks for fillings that are cracking, wearing down, or starting to fail. It’s much easier to replace a failing filling while it’s still small than to deal with a broken tooth later.
Dr. Craig Stout has been fixing cavities in Rexburg for nearly 20 years. He’s efficient, direct, and won’t recommend more treatment than you actually need. If you’re nervous, let us know — a lot of patients are, and we know how to help you through it.
We see patients from Rexburg, Rigby, Sugar City, St. Anthony, and across eastern Idaho. Don’t put off a filling — it only gets worse with time. Call (208) 400-9946 to book an appointment.
