Dental Fillings

Dental Fillings: Stop Tooth Decay

Got a cavity (a hole caused by decay)? A dental filling is the simple, effective way to fix it.

Quick Facts

  • Repairs teeth damaged by decay.
  • Stops food from constantly getting stuck in the same spot.
  • Prevents decay from getting worse and causing infection.
  • Restores the tooth’s shape and strength.
  1. Numbing: We numb the area so you’re comfortable.
  2. Cleaning: We gently remove the decayed part of the tooth.
  3. Filling: We place a tooth-colored material, shaping it to look natural.
  4. Finishing: We harden the filling and check your bite.

No! The procedure is painless because your mouth is numb. You might have some mild, temporary sensitivity afterward, which is normal.
