Fillings

BOOK ONLINE

A filling is a dental restoration used to repair a tooth that has been damaged by decay or trauma. It involves removing the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth and filling the space with a durable material such as composite resin. 

Cavities can develop in teeth for a variety of reasons and often begin between the teeth hidden from view. For this reason, it is important to update x-rays every two years to monitor for early signs of tooth decay and review the overall health of your teeth.

What causes cavities, and why are fillings necessary?

Cavities develop in teeth due to factors such as poor oral hygiene, plaque buildup, and dietary habits. Fillings are necessary to stop the progression of cavities by restoring the damaged tooth structure and preventing further decay.

What materials are used for dental fillings, and why?

For fillings, we primarily use composite resin with a sequence of bonding agents that ensure no sensitivity and excellent longevity. This material offers excellent aesthetics, durability, and biocompatibility. Composite resin fillings are precisely shade matched to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing a discreet and long-lasting solution.
