Modern Advances for Safer Fillings
We do not use mercury at our practice. Nonetheless, numerous patients still have mercury/silver dental fillings from previous years. Normally, these fillings are a mixture of tin, copper and silver held together with roughly fifty percent mercury. Fillings like these are not aesthetically pleasing and due to the way they are designed they weaken the structure of the teeth.
Do Composite Fillings Look Different?
Tooth colored restorations and porcelain inlays produce fillings that are both attractive (or invisible) and effective at strengthening weakened teeth. As well as being pleasing to the eye, these restorations are extremely strong thanks to recent dental bonding technologies.
Composite restorations use a material made from multiple chemical compounds renown for their low cost and durability. These artificial resins consist of compounds such as dimethacrylates, Bis GMA monomers, and other components the dentist might opt to add to tailor the mixture to the patient’s requirements. It is fairly common for silica to be used as filler to generate a stable formula.
What is the Composite Restoration Process?
When performing composite restorations, the dentist numbs the area being worked on, then removes any tooth parts that have been damaged. After this, the rough edges are smoothed over as thoroughly as possible. Next, the dentist will check that the nerve of the tooth is protected, before drying the tooth completely. Finally, the hole gets injected with composite resin, before being cured or dried with a blue LED light.
Primarily, the appeal of composite dental fillings relates to their cosmetic advantages. They can be used to partially replace teeth that are damaged in a material that closely resembles the original tooth. Better still, the resin strengthens the tooth by chemically bonding to its structure. Unlike mercury/silver fillings, composite dental fillings are effective at fixing cracked, worn or finely chipped vertical segments of teeth, which would appear unnatural if fixed with metallic inlay.
WE LOVE OUR PATIENTS
PATIENT REVIEWS MEAN A LOT TO US
The staff as well as the doctors are outstanding!We would recommend this practice to anyone looking for a dentist.
I moved to Los Angeles 3 years ago to work in Hollywood and Dr. Huelsman is STILL the only person I will EVER trust with my teeth! I fly back to Ohio every year JUST TO SEE HIM AND HIS TEAM! They do exceptional, honest work and make going to the dentist a luxury… not a chore. Thank you Dr. Huelsman and the incredible staff for always taking care of me and making me comfortable 🙂
Excellent experience! The staff, the facility, and the service were all sparkling!
This is the best facility to go for everything thing dental. Reception is a 5-star and their work is impeccable. Everything is explained and you can feel how much they want you to be comfortable and leave with the best result. They actually do care not just pretend for professional sake. And they check on you after not just once. I wish everyone will experience dentists and professionals like them.
I love having you as my dentist! Both of you are always so friendly and your entire staff are all great!!! I appreciate the service
Really great first appointment and I wasn't able to stay for everything so I'm going back but they were very flexible with schedules.Glad we found a new dentist in the area!
I always have a fun time seeing the staff at the Huelsman office.They are very friendly and the dental service is the best!I am so happy that Sara returned to the team.
Dr. Huelsman was wonderful to my elderly mother. He treated her like he would treat his own. In addition to being kind he also is very good specialist and knows what he is doing. My whole family has been going to Dr. Kevin Huelsman for years and have always received best care from him and his wonderful staff. Highly recommend.
Everytime I have an appointment with the Huelsman, I know I will always be treated with respect and in a very professional manner. Both father and son do an excellent job describing what they are doing and why they are doing it. They always let you know what to expect if giving you a shot or just preparing a tooth for a filling.They are both very professional in what they do.
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Kevin S. Huelsman, DDS, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by Angie and Kishia at the front desk. Their friendly and welcoming demeanor instantly put me at ease.The thoroughness of the exam was remarkable. Both Dr. Kevin Huelsman and Dr. Connor Huelsman took the time to review my X-rays carefully, and I appreciated their honesty and clear communication about my dental health. They explained everything in detail and made sure I understood all my options without any pressure.The office itself was spotless and had a very comfortable atmosphere. It’s clear that they prioritize both cleanliness and patient comfort. Overall, I highly recommend this practice for anyone looking for a trustworthy and friendly dental team.
This is such a great office. Every single person here is so kind, welcoming and understanding. I highly recommend coming here if you are looking for a dentist. They were also able to help me work on payments because I had to pay for some of services out of pocket. They were easy to talk to and at no point I feel like I was being judged.
Incredible team. My grandpa had a medical emergency while pulling into his dentist appointment here. Dr. Huelsman and his team got him medical care immediately. My grandpa had hit a curb in his car and flattened his tire during his medical issue while pulling in and Dr. Huelsman changed the tire himself so that my grandma would be able to drive the car to meet my grandpa at the ER. Thank you all for your care and kindness. Thankfully my Grandpa is okay, thanks in large part to their quick response in getting him the care he needed.
They used my social security without my consent for my husband to make a co-signed care credit account while we both were there and weren't aware of this application. We thought it's going to be only his account not for both of us.
Dr.'s Kevin and Conner Huelsman and their staff are the best!Our families are "charter memebers" on this dentistry in Worthington. If you are looking for a dentist, check them out!
I highly recommend this place. Everyone is so nice. Everyone was helpful and happy. The staff definitely works as a team. My grandparents saw Dr. Huelsman (the father) and my co worker recommended them to me when we moved to the area. My girls got a Ty beanie baby as a gift and new guest. They explained everything to my daughter who was a little nervous. We had the pleasure of having Dr. Kevin Huelsman and he answered all of my daughters questions which gained her trust. As long as I’m in Columbus, Dr. Huelsman will be my families dentist.
Dr Kevin and Dr Connor are top notch. Chris is a fantastic dental hygienist. I always feel at ease and leave with a smile.
Prompt, highly qualified and friendly staff. would recommend this practice.
Amazingly accommodating! Prompt, courteous, and super professional. Many, many thanks.
On my second visit here, they were once again prompt, friendly, and efficient. The office is clean and updated. I am new to the area and this dentist is conveniently close. So far, I am very happy.
This was my first visit at Dr. Huelsman’s practice. All of the staff are attentive, caring, and kind. Even though the dentist can be an intimidating experience, I felt comfortable and at ease. I am very happy to have found this gem of a practice. I 100% recommend!
Everyone is very friendly. The office is very nice and very comfortable. I highly recommend this place.
I have been a patient of Dr. Huelsmans for over 15yrs. He takes great care of myself and my husband's teeth. I have had trouble with other jaw problems and he has always sent me to the best to treat the problems.
Entire staff are superb! Dr. Collin is close to as skilled as Kevin Huesman. Appreciate the upgrades to the equipment also
Excellent dentist with wonderful staff. Christine has been our hygienist for the past 5 years and is absolutely excellent!
Dr. Huelsman & team are FANTASTIC!!! They're calming, gentle, thorough, and very welcoming. I’ve never been at a dentist that I truly enjoy going to my appointments (it’s weird, I know!). Any procedure we have had, our comfort is their top priority as they make sure things are handled efficiently and effectively. I recommend Dr. Huelsman to anyone looking for a new dentist...you will be thrilled to have found such a gem🖤
Dr. Kevin and Dr. Connor Huelsman and Staff took excellent care of me when I needed a crown repaired. Thanks for being caring and kind!
Everyone one there, are friendly and knowledgeable. Appreciate all of 'em and recommend them to all. Connor is great and is nudging the old man into early retirement....lol.
A perfect combination of friendly and professional. I was having a bad day on my last appointment and I had empathy and hugs from the staff. The staff explains everything in "layman's" terms with excellent advice for amazing care for my teeth. I constantly tell people about my Dentist when the subject pops up. I am proud to have Kevin and his team to take of my dental care.
Wonderful staff and even better service. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for dental services!
Best Dentists on earth and professionally run office. Everyone is there for the patient.
Leaving with a smile is easy. Now going to the Dentist, trust and confidence also brings a smile! The Huelsman Dentists have the state of art technology, education, and training to provide so many services with less expense and so much comfort.I needed to bring my dental work up to date (due to so many birthdays). Fillings that still had mercury in them, a crown that was leaking, etc. Interesting that the crown could be done at the same appointment in the office with this new technology and expert education that Conner, DDS has. My dental Hygienist, Autumn is also amazing. She, too, has the technology provided and the training, experience, and skill to take care of my cleanings and educating me on how to better care for my teeth and gums.When I enter the office, I am greeted with the warmest hello and leave with such a positive good-by.
I love this dentist so gentle while working on your teeth very caring about ur teeth health very professional definitely would recommend
We had an excellent experience for our first appointment. They are awesome with kids !
Was there for first appointment and it took close to 2 hours I still heared nothing about what treatments are needed.... ... could not stay any longer I had other appointments scheduled..... so I had to leave ... I really don't know what to say 😕Tried getting treatment plan ... I find communication not easy......I found the experience was unpleasant. Tried calling 3 times .....and no real response.......so SILENCE is a response itself ...... I won't bother you anymore ......no I have no answers to my questions.... but you took money 💰 from my insurance company 😒 🤔I will find another dentist and get xrays sent to new dentist ..... sorry for bothering you .....I will take my concerns elsewhere.....UPDATE ........went to a very good dentist and found that this dentist wanted to do a crown on a tooth that was not viable for a crown.......did not tell me other small easy to correct issues......that 2nd option on told me........I believe you don't treat u till you can charge alot of money for major issues ....so you ignore minor issues....This clinic is so backwards and weird ...
Dr. Huelsman and his team are wonderful! I always feel welcome when I visit their office. Chris is my dental hygienist and she’s always so sweet and gentle. She makes going to the dentist, I dare say, enjoyable! I would recommend anyone looking for a dentist to give them a call.
Always a great experience. They are always on time and very friendly. This is a great office
You’re more than a number at Dr. Huelsman’s office. Growing up in a small town, finding doctors who treat you as the human you are means so much. My daughters have been going since they were 2 yrs old and the staff is just so great to them too! They do not fear the dentist whatsoever! Highly recommend!
I can't recommend this dental office enough! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was calming, and the staff were incredibly professional and welcoming. The care I received was top-notch; the dentist not only did an excellent job with my treatment but also took the time to explain everything thoroughly. The attention to detail and precision in their work truly sets them apart. This office has undoubtedly earned my trust, and I'll be recommending them to everyone I know!
Everyone in the office is so friendly. I am not a fan of dental work (who is?) but Dr. Huelsman’s staff make it not so bad. No judgement and they are very thorough and do things right! Kind and caring. Thank you for making the dentist not so scary.
My hygienist, Chris, Dr. Conner and everyone was very kind and helpful, as well as knowledgeable and efficient. The whole team makes you feel like part of the family - especially when Dr. Kevin is in and spreads his joy.
I am so grateful that my life circumstances lead me to the Huelsman Dental Practice! Everyone that I've had the pleasure of meeting is so friendly and professional. Unfortunately, my mouth is in need of some extensive work but I'm looking forward to having Dr. Connor do that work...he's so kind and takes time to make sure you thoroughly understand your dental needs and I appreciate that. I highly recommend the Huelsman Dental Team to anyone in need of dental work!
I love this office! The dental hygienists are the best I've ever experienced; skilled, thorough and so pleasant. Both dentists are great as are the office staff. Strongly recommend.
I always have a good experience at Kevin Huelsman, DDS practice. Chris is my dental hygenist and she is very prompt, conscientious and knowledgable. I have been going to Dr. Huelsman since he started his practice many years ago.
From the first step into the practice the staff was so warm and welcoming. I had my teeth cleaned and the hygienist took her time to talk to me and ask questions. When the Doctor came in and checked my entire mouth he was so professional explaining what I needed. Top notch practice!
I hadn’t been to Dr Huelsman for several years because I moved out of town, but I’m back and was having mouth pain. They were lovely to speak to and able to get me a same-day appointment. When I arrived I had no wait (didn’t even sit down after checking in!) and both the dental assistant and Dr Huelsman were so kind and eager to help address my problems. I left very happy and will be back for my regular dental check ups from now on!
