Dental Fillings

Restore your smile with dental fillings for long-lasting protection

Dental fillings are used to restore teeth that have been damaged by cavities or decay. The process involves removing the decayed part of the tooth and filling the empty space with a durable material. Modern fillings are made from materials like composite resin or porcelain, which blend seamlessly with your natural tooth color. Fillings not only restore the tooth’s function but also prevent further decay, ensuring long-term oral health.

Durable dental fillings for a healthy, functional smile

The procedure begins with the dentist removing the decayed area of the tooth. Once the decay is cleaned out, the tooth is filled with a material like composite resin, which is shaped to match the natural contours of your tooth. After the filling material is applied, it is hardened and polished to restore the tooth’s appearance and functionality. Dental fillings are highly effective at preventing the spread of decay and preserving the strength of the tooth.
