- FillingsThere are many types of filling materials available, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. You and your dentist can discuss the best options for restoring your teeth. Composite fillings, along with silver amalgam fillings, are the most widely used today. Because composite fillings are tooth colored, they can be closely matched to the color of existing teeth, and are more aesthetically suited for use in front teeth or the more visible areas of the teeth.
- Resin CompositeFor many years dentists have been taught to repair or reshape teeth with composite resin by taking pieces of room temperature material and pushing it on or into teeth with various instruments. Piece by piece is typically set with a powerful light source which hardens the material.

- General DentistryI was referred to Dr. Carroll a few years ago by a friend who has had numerous issues with her teeth and gums. I took my daughter who has a rather unusual situation and could not be more pleased with the results! I was incredibly impressed with his eye for detail and professionalism and never felt that I was receiving less than 100% of his attention. Since that time, my entire family is using him for general dentistry as well as the many specialties he provides. His entire office is equally pleasant and professional which is unusual to find at a dental office. I would highly recommend Dr. Carroll!!!
