DENTAL FILLINGS
Dental fillings are used to restore teeth damaged by decay, cracks, or minor fractures. When a cavity forms, it creates a small hole in the tooth structure that can worsen over time if left untreated. A dental filling removes the decayed portion and restores the tooth’s shape, strength, and function.
Modern tooth-colored (composite) fillings blend naturally with your teeth, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution. The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and typically completed in just one visit.
WHEN DO YOU NEED A DENTAL FILLING?
- Visible holes or dark spots on the tooth.
- Tooth sensitivity to sweets, hot, or cold foods and beverages.
- Mild to moderate tooth pain.
- Chipped or slightly damaged teeth.
- Worn enamel caused by teeth grinding.
Early treatment helps prevent cavities from progressing into more serious problems that may require root canal therapy or crowns.
