A no-drill filling treats an early cavity without drilling, numbing, or removing any healthy tooth. At Bevan Dental, we offer no-drill fillings in Napa with Curodont, a treatment from vVARDIS in Switzerland.
Instead of cutting away the weak spot, Curodont helps your tooth rebuild its own enamel.
Early decay starts as a weak, chalky spot where minerals have been pulled out of your enamel. We apply Curodont to that spot. It seeps into the enamel and forms a framework that helps your tooth draw minerals back in from your saliva.
Deeper cavities still need a dental filling. Dr. Bevan will check your X-rays and tell you honestly which option fits.
No-drill treatment only works when decay is caught early. Our digital X-rays and Overjet AI help spot these areas at your regular exams, often before you'd ever feel a thing.
The visit is quick and comfortable: no shot, no drill, and no numbness afterward. We'll check the area at your next visits to make sure it's healing well. Read more in our post, Can a cavity heal without drilling?
“I'd rather tell you the truth than talk you into something. If you're nervous, we slow down and keep things gentle. If something can wait, I'll tell you it can wait. After more than 25 years, I've learned that being honest and gentle is its own kind of warmth.”
Dr. Kenneth J. Bevan, founder and dentist










Expert dental care, delivered with honesty and a gentle touch. Dr. Kenneth J. Bevan has practiced dentistry since 1999, and today he runs a calm, small-team practice on Villa Lane in Napa. We see patients one at a time, we work hard to run on schedule, and we take the time to explain your options in plain language.
Dr. Bevan stays current with new treatments, and Curodont is one of them. It lets us treat some early cavities without drilling or numbing, which many offices don't offer yet. If your cavity is too far along, he'll tell you honestly and recommend the right alternative.
