Fillings

Edmonton Dental Services Fillings

Fillings are a common and effective treatment used to restore the functionality and shape of teeth that have been damaged by decay. When you receive a filling, the process begins with our skilled dental team removing the decayed portion of your tooth, thoroughly cleaning the cavity, and then filling the empty space with a durable material. This procedure typically takes just one appointment, allowing you to quickly restore your tooth to its original state and improve your overall oral health.

There are various materials that can be used for fillings, each with its own set of benefits and considerations. The two most widely used types of fillings are composite and amalgam:

  • Composite fillings are made from a mixture of plastic and glass, and they can be customized to match the exact colour of your natural teeth. This makes composite fillings an excellent choice for teeth that are visible when you smile, as they blend seamlessly with the surrounding tooth structure. Composite fillings are not only aesthetically pleasing but also provide a durable, functional solution to cavities.
  • Amalgam fillings are made from a combination of metals, including mercury, silver, and tin. While these fillings are incredibly strong and long-lasting, they are more noticeable due to their metallic appearance. Amalgam fillings are typically used for molars or other teeth that are less visible, where strength and durability are the primary concern.
