Meet Dr. Tim Mozner – Trusted Family Dentist in Syosset, Oyster Bay, NY

Voted one of America’s Best Dentists three times, Dr. Tim Mozner combines advanced techniques with a conservative approach to dental treatment. He believes in preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible and uses high-quality, tooth-colored composite materials for every filling.

What Are Tooth-Colored Fillings?

Tooth-colored (composite) fillings are made from a durable resin material that’s matched to the exact shade of your teeth. They’re used to repair areas of decay, cracks, chips, or minor damage — while keeping your smile healthy and natural-looking.

Unlike traditional silver (amalgam) fillings, composite fillings are metal-free, bond directly to the tooth, and require less drilling.

When Do You Need a Filling?

You may need a dental filling if you have:

A visible or diagnosed cavity
Tooth sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweets
A chipped or cracked tooth
A worn-down tooth from grinding
Dark spots or discoloration
Food getting stuck between teeth

If you’re experiencing any of these, book a quick exam with Dr. Mozner to prevent the problem from getting worse.

The Dental Filling Process

Gentle Numbing – Local anesthesia ensures a pain-free procedure
Decay Removal – We remove only the damaged or decayed portion
Filling Placement – The composite resin is layered and cured with light
Shaping & Polishing – The filling is contoured for a smooth, natural look

The entire process usually takes under an hour — and you’ll leave with a fully restored tooth the same day.

Fillings for Kids & Teens

We also offer pediatric dental fillings for children and teens with cavities. Our gentle approach helps ease dental anxiety and builds positive habits for lifelong oral health.

FAQs – Dental Fillings in Syosset, Oyster Bay, NY

Do fillings hurt?
Nope! With local anesthesia and modern techniques, most patients feel no pain during the process.

How long do tooth-colored fillings last?
Composite fillings typically last 7–10 years or more, depending on oral hygiene and biting forces.

Can old metal fillings be replaced with tooth-colored ones?
Absolutely! We offer filling replacement for patients who want a healthier, more aesthetic option.

Is a filling better than a crown?
