Dental fillings, also known as dental restorations, help preserve the health and integrity of your teeth. When tooth decay, cavities or damage occur, fillings provide a reliable solution to restore the tooth’s structure and function. Whether you require a filling to address a small cavity or to repair a larger area of damage, we employ advanced techniques and materials to ensure optimal results.
During the filling procedure, our experienced dentist will first remove the decayed enamel from the tooth. This process involves gentle care and precision to preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible. Once the affected area is cleaned and prepared, we will carefully fill it with a durable material that restores the tooth’s strength and appearance. In addition to addressing decay and damage, dental fillings also help prevent further deterioration of the tooth. By sealing off areas of vulnerability, fillings protect against bacteria and reduce the risk of future complications. With proper care and attention, your fillings can last for many years, helping you enjoy a healthy and functional smile.
If you are experiencing tooth pain, sensitivity or suspect you may have a cavity, do not delay seeking treatment.
