We are posting a case here to show you what a cavity and a filling on a molar tooth looks like with our tooth-colored fillings. Picture 1 below shows a small cavity that was opened up by a drill. Before we opened it up, it was mimicking a stain in the grooves. However, with the help of our decay detection camera CamX Spectra, we were able to pinpoint this "stain" as decay and get to work. Picture 2 below shows the tooth filled with tooth-colored filling material, also called composite. Making it look like nothing happened is our treatment goal and now the tooth is cavity free!
