Tooth Fillings

Tooth fillings are a common dental procedure used to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay (cavities) or minor fractures. The procedure involves removing the decayed portion of the tooth and filling the cleaned-out cavity with a restorative material.

We offer various types of filling materials including tooth-colored composite resin, which matches your natural tooth color for a seamless appearance, as well as amalgam and glass ionomer options. Our dentists will help you choose the best material based on the location and extent of the decay, your aesthetic preferences, and budget.

Getting a filling is typically quick and comfortable, often completed in a single visit. It restores the tooth's function and shape while preventing further decay. Book an appointment today to address your cavity concerns and protect your dental health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tooth fillings are restorative materials used to repair teeth damaged by decay or cavities. The procedure involves removing the decayed portion and filling the space with a durable material like composite resin, amalgam, or glass ionomer to restore the tooth's function and structure.

The lifespan of a filling depends on the material used and your oral hygiene habits. Composite resin fillings typically last 5-7 years, while amalgam fillings can last 10-15 years or longer with proper care. Regular dental check-ups help monitor the condition of your fillings.

Your comfort is our priority. Before placing a filling, we apply a local anesthetic to numb the area, ensuring you feel little to no discomfort during the procedure. You may experience some sensitivity after the anesthetic wears off, but this is temporary and usually subsides within a few days.

We offer several filling materials: tooth-colored composite resin (most popular for its natural appearance), amalgam (silver fillings known for durability), and glass ionomer (often used for children or non-biting surfaces). Your dentist will recommend the best option based on your specific needs.
