A dental filling is a common and effective dental restoration utilized to address minor to moderate tooth damage. When a tooth is affected by decay, such as a cavity or experiences small fractures or chips, a dental filling is often recommended to restore the tooth to its original structure and function, ultimately enhancing the health of your smile. Two primary types of dental fillings are available, amalgam fillings and composite fillings, each with its unique advantages and considerations.
The process of placing a dental filling is typically completed during a single visit to our dental office. Our skilled and experienced dentist will begin by carefully removing the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth, ensuring that all traces of decay are thoroughly eliminated. Once the tooth is cleaned and prepared, the chosen filling material is precisely applied to the affected area and shaped to seamlessly match the natural contours of your tooth. To ensure the longevity of the restoration, the filling is then hardened and polished.
If you have a decayed or damaged tooth, a dental filling can be an excellent option for restoring your oral health and function. We invite you to reach out to our office today to discover more about dental fillings and to schedule your next appointment with our dentist and team. Your smile is our priority, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to provide you with exceptional dental care.
