The Dental Filling Procedure
Our dentist will examine your tooth and may take X-rays to determine the extent of damage.
Local anesthesia is administered to ensure you're comfortable throughout the procedure.
The dentist removes the decayed portion of the tooth and cleans the area thoroughly.
The filling material is applied, shaped, and polished to restore your tooth's function and appearance.
Frequently Asked Questions
No, dental fillings are not painful. We use local anesthesia to numb the area before the procedure. You may experience some sensitivity for a few days after the filling is placed, but this typically resolves quickly.
The lifespan of a dental filling depends on the material used and your oral hygiene habits. Composite fillings typically last 5-7 years, while amalgam fillings can last 10-15 years with proper care.
The best filling material depends on the location of the cavity, the extent of decay, your budget, and aesthetic preferences. Our dentists will recommend the most suitable option for your specific situation.
Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice daily and flossing once daily. Avoid chewing on hard foods with the filled tooth, and visit your dentist regularly for check-ups to ensure the filling remains in good condition.
