Dental fillings are a common and effective solution for repairing cavities and restoring the health of your teeth. At Happy Teeth, Dr. Bruce King provides expert care, ensuring that each filling is applied with precision and skill to maintain your oral health and smile.
Dental fillings are used to address areas of decay or damage within a tooth. The procedure involves removing the decayed portion of the tooth, cleaning the affected area and filling it with a material that restores the tooth’s structure and function. Several types of filling materials are available, including composite resin, amalgam, gold and porcelain. We will help you choose the best material based on your specific needs and preferences.
The process for receiving a dental filling typically involves the following steps:
- Examination: Our dentist and team assess the tooth and discuss the treatment plan with you.
- Preparation: The decayed portion of the tooth is removed, and the area is cleaned to ensure it is free of bacteria.
- Filling: The chosen filling material is placed into the cavity and shaped to match the natural contours of the tooth.
- Polishing: The filling is polished to ensure a smooth finish and comfortable bite.
