At our dental clinic, a dental filling is a simple yet essential procedure to restore teeth affected by decay or minor damage. We carefully remove the damaged portion of the tooth, thoroughly clean the area, and use high-quality materials such as composite resin, ceramic, or hybrid glass ionomer to fill and protect the tooth. This not only prevents further decay but also restores the tooth's strength, function, and natural appearance, ensuring your smile stays healthy and confident.
A dental filling is necessary in the following situations:
To treat and prevent the spread of tooth decay.
To restore the tooth's structure and protect it from further damage.
Caused by grinding, acid erosion, or other factors.
When previous fillings are cracked, loose, or deteriorating.
To cover exposed areas causing discomfort from hot, cold, or sweet foods.
We assess your teeth and identify areas requiring treatment.
Detailed imaging to evaluate the extent of decay or damage
Ensuring your comfort with a localized numbing agent.
Gently clearing out damaged or decayed portions of the tooth.
Thoroughly cleaning the cavity to prevent infection.
Carefully applying and shaping the chosen filling material.
Healing after a dental filling is usually quick, with most people resuming normal activities the same day. You can expect:
Temporary numbness in the treated area for a few hours due to anesthesia.
Mild sensitivity to hot, cold, or pressure, which usually subsides within a few days.
Adjusted bite,your dentist will ensure your bite feels normal; let them know if it feels uneven.
Restored tooth function and protection from further decay.
If discomfort persists beyond a few days, consult your dentist for a follow-up.
