A dental filling shouldn’t just fix a tooth; it should be a seamless, safe, and natural part of your smile. At Les Belles NYC, we’ve moved beyond old metal fillings. Our practice specializes in modern, biocompatible restorations that are mercury-free, BPA-free, and designed to look and feel just like your natural teeth.

What Makes a Filling “Natural”?

A natural filling is made from composite resin that blends ceramic or glass with plastic resin. Unlike silver amalgam, which contains mercury and mixed metals, composite fillings match the shade of your teeth and avoid materials that can raise health concerns. At Les Belles NYC, every filling we place is free of mercury and BPA, offering both safety and aesthetics.

Why Patients Choose Biocompatible Options

Biocompatible fillings are designed to work in harmony with your body. Patients choose them for several reasons:

  • Appearance: Composite fillings look like natural teeth, with no dark metal lines.
  • Health: By avoiding mercury and BPA, we help reduce potential risks tied to older materials.
  • Comfort and durability: Modern composites are strong enough to handle daily chewing and last for many years.

More Than Fillings: Other Biocompatible Restorations

  • Crowns, Inlays, and Onlays: When damage goes beyond a simple filling, our crowns, inlays, and onlays restore strength while remaining free of mercury and BPA. They are carefully crafted to protect your teeth and support long-term wellness.
  • Cosmetic Bonding and Bio Bonding™: For chips, cracks, or cosmetic refinements, we offer BPA-free composite bonding. We also provide Bio Bonding™, a layered bonding technique guided by AI to ensure both function and beauty. This service is unique to Les Belles NYC and reflects our focus on dentistry that adapts to each patient’s biology.

The Les Belles Difference

At Les Belles NYC, biocompatible dentistry is about more than just the materials we use; it’s about the precision with which we use them. We utilize AI-assisted diagnostics to plan treatments with unparalleled accuracy. For cosmetic refinements, we offer our signature Bio Bonding™, a layered bonding technique guided by AI to ensure a result that is both beautiful and biologically harmonious. This commitment to technology and holistic health, led by Dr. Sharon Huang, is what sets our practice apart.
