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:
At Design Dentistry, we focus on providing composite fillings to help maintain the natural appearance of your smile. We believe in offering treatments that blend seamlessly with your teeth, giving you both a functional and aesthetically pleasing result.
