The Importance of Timely Fillings for Optimal Oral Health

Fillings are used to repair teeth damaged by decay or fractures. The procedure involves cleaning out the affected area and filling it with a durable material to restore the tooth's strength and shape. Whether you need to address a cavity or repair a break, our fillings help you use your tooth just as you would normally.

The Filling Procedure: A Step-by-Step Overview

Diagnosis and Assessment

The process starts with a thorough examination, during which our dentist identifies the area of decay or damage. This assessment ensures we address the issue accurately and effectively.

Preparation and Cleaning

Once the problem area is pinpointed, we clean the affected tooth and remove any decayed material. This step is crucial for ensuring that the filling attaches properly and the tooth is restored to its optimal condition.

Choosing the Right Filling Material

We offer several types of filling materials to suit your needs and preferences:

  • Amalgam (Silver-Colored): Durable and ideal for back teeth.
  • Composite Resin (Tooth-Colored): Blends seamlessly with your natural tooth color.
  • Porcelain: Provides a natural look and is highly durable.

Shaping and Polishing

After filling the cleaned space, the material is shaped to match the natural shapes of your tooth. The final step involves polishing the filling for a smooth finish, ensuring it feels comfortable and looks natural.

Comfortable and Personalized Care

You'll be numb in the affected area throughout the filling procedure, ensuring a pain-free experience. We prioritize your comfort and are happy to take breaks as needed to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
