What Is a Dental Filling?
A dental filling is a common and effective way to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay (cavities) or minor fractures. Early treatment is essential—addressing a cavity as soon as it’s discovered helps prevent pain, infection, and the need for more extensive procedures.
When Is a Filling Needed?
- Tooth decay (cavities)
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Worn-down teeth from grinding or acidic foods
- Replacing an old or damaged filling
If left untreated, cavities can grow larger and may eventually require root canal treatment or even extraction.
Our Approach: Tooth-Colored Composite Fillings
At Gloss & Floss, we primarily use high-quality composite fillings—a modern material made from a blend of glass and resin. Composite fillings are:
- Aesthetic: Matched to the natural color of your tooth, making them virtually invisible.
- Durable: Strong and long-lasting when properly cared for.
- Minimally invasive: Allowing us to preserve more healthy tooth structure.
- Safe: Free from mercury and metal.
The Dental Filling Procedure – What to Expect
Examination & Diagnosis
Your dentist examines your teeth, often using digital X-rays, to determine the extent of decay or damage.
Gentle Preparation
The affected area is carefully cleaned, and the damaged tissue is removed. We use modern, gentle techniques to ensure your comfort—most patients report little or no discomfort.
Filling Placement
The composite material is applied in layers and shaped to match your natural tooth. A special light hardens the filling for a strong, secure bond.
Finishing Touches
Your dentist polishes the filling for a smooth, natural look and checks your bite for comfort.
What If Decay Is Extensive?
If the decay has reached the pulp (nerve) of the tooth, a root canal treatment may be necessary. This involves removing the infected tissue, cleaning the root canals, and sealing them with a safe, biocompatible material to protect your tooth.
Aftercare and Tips
- You can eat and drink soon after a composite filling, but avoid very hard or sticky foods for a few hours.
- Maintain good oral hygiene—brush, floss, and visit your dentist regularly.
- Let us know if you experience any sensitivity or discomfort.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
