Even small areas of decay can compromise your comfort and confidence. At Grant H. Schneider II, DDS, we restore damaged teeth using high-quality composite Alexandria dental fillings that strengthen, seal, and blend beautifully with your natural enamel. These restorations are customized to match your tooth color, so they look completely seamless.

Common questions about dental fillings

Does getting a filling hurt?

No. The area is completely numbed, and we work carefully to ensure a smooth, pain-free experience.

When can I eat after my filling?

You can eat once the numbness wears off. We recommend avoiding very hard or sticky foods for the first day.

Can old metal fillings be replaced?

Yes, when appropriate. Our Alexandria composite dental fillings offer a more natural look and often a better seal than older materials.

What happens if a filling falls out?

Call our office right away. We’ll repair it quickly to protect your tooth and prevent sensitivity.

Should I get a filling if my tooth doesn’t hurt?

Yes. Early treatment prevents deeper decay that could lead to more extensive procedures like crowns or root canals.
