Protect Your Overall Health With Metal-Free Fillings

While some dental practices don't have an issue using amalgam fillings, we choose the more conservative route. While the research is ongoing, there are some known risk factors associated with the use of mercury in fillings. With this in mind, we go the extra mile to protect your long-term health by avoiding metal fillings.

With our composite fillings, you'll experience many benefits you won't find with silver fillings:

Less Tooth Structure Removed - Unlike metal fillings, we won't have to remove as much of your healthy tooth structure to place the composite material in your tooth.
More Confidence When You Smile - Composite fillings won't be visible to the naked eye and will look natural inside of your mouth.
Reduced Tooth Sensitivity - Using amalgam material to repair teeth can lead to tooth sensitivity. Composite resin seals better on your tooth and prevents this issue.

Our team can even remove and replace any existing amalgam fillings. If we determine a cavity or some other tooth decay is too significant for a filling, we can repair your tooth with an inlay or onlay or with a dental crown instead. Our two in-house prosthodontists are experts at repairing smiles with restorative procedures. They will work with you on what your smile needs to get in top shape. We can even make your restorations at our practice at our in-house lab.

For tooth fillings in Oxnard, call Anacapa Dental Art Institute today for an appointment. You can also schedule online if you prefer.

Had my first appointment today at the office, all the ladies I came in contact with were so kind! From Ale checking me in and Elaine checking me out. Brooke has the perfect touch, I saw her for a cleaning today and Dr. Deicy was so sweet and honest.

Anacapa Dental Art Institute gives the highest level of professionalism and care. Their office is very clean and welcoming. I'm so pleased to be working with them on my smile improvement!

Sara L.

Dr. Jivraj and his staff are the absolute BEST in the industry and we are so lucky they're in practice here, locally, in Ventura County. They worked with me on every aspect of my dental journey. I couldn't have asked for anything more. They're upfront, forthright, and honest. I can't recommend anyone to a better dental group than Anacapa Dental Art Institute. You'll be amazed at how they can change your image of self. Smile again without any worry of what others will think, and give you back your self-confidence.

I have both upper and lower complete implants and couldn't be happier. Dr. J and his assistant Laura are amazing. My appointments always started on time, there was minimal pain, and they always called at home to check in on me. The office is equipped with incredible state-of-the-art...

Dr. Jivraj is a perfectionist, top-notch, and he expects nothing less from his team. Point blank, he's the best. He laid out a plan. He said, "In 6-8 months I'll have you crunching on an apple." I had no doubt that he meant every word. He exuded confidence and made me feel completely comfortable. His wonderful financing department came up with a plan that was affordable for me, and got me interest-free financing for up to 2 years. Not once throughout this process was I made to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed, and they treated me like family.

Steven W.

This place is professional, comprehensive, and nice. Loved the staff and loved the holistic look that the doctor took to consider my orthodontics (being done elsewhere) and sleep apnea and making requests of the orthodontist to account for the issue. Anyway, I just went in for routine cleaning,...

Anthony V.

I was immediately impressed by the attentiveness from the employees at the front desk. They were joyful and made you feel immediately at ease. They then took me on a tour of the facility. The rooms were super clean and all equipment is state of the art. I was introduced to pretty much everyone on staff and they were all happy and friendly. After having X-rays, I then met with the dentist. He was very knowledgeable and I agreed with everything he discussed in regards to the problems with my teeth.

Denise D.

Traveling from overseas and broke my dentures the day before departure. Once in LA, I started looking for a dentist. I made an appointment with Dr. J. I was my lucky day:) after crossing the threshold of Anacapa I felt at home. I couldn't believe it but the Dr. took my dentures and fixed them, so just saw my desperation saw me , not only my money. the tears poured into my eyes by themselves. After this we talked about options, yes, it's a lot of money, but it's worth it. Today I have lower fixed dentures and love them.

What are white tooth fillings made of?

White tooth fillings are made of composite resin, a blend of ceramic and plastic. Unlike amalgam fillings, which are made of a blend of metals, they can be matched to the color of your other teeth so they aren't noticeable in your smile. They also cause fewer allergy issues than amalgam.

Which tooth fillings are safe?

All dental fillings are safe for most patients. However, some studies have raised concerns about the long-term health impact of mercury, which is used in amalgam fillings. Both the FDA and the American Dental Association say mercury in fillings is safe. However, mercury isn't a concern at all with our composite fillings.

When do tooth fillings need to be replaced?

The life of fillings will vary, depending on their location and your oral hygiene, among other factors. A composite filling typically lasts from five to 10 years. No filling is designed to last a lifetime. You can maximize the life span of any filling by brushing and flossing every day and visiting us at least twice a year for professional cleanings.

Can tooth fillings come out?

Yes, tooth fillings can occasionally come out. If a person tends to eat a lot of chewy, sticky, or hard foods and candies, their fillings can come out. If this happens to you, try to put the filling back in place if possible, then call our office as soon as you can so we can get you in and replace the filling.
