Need a Tooth Filling? We can help
Tooth fillings are used to repair damaged, decayed, broken, or worn-out teeth. If you have cavities and need a tooth filling, we can help. We have the skills and the expertise to restore damaged teeth, so they look as good as new.
The filling material fills the cracks or holes and restores the tooth to its natural shape and look. Dental fillings also strengthen the tooth, protecting it from further damage and temperature sensitivity. At My Local Dentists, we have a range of teeth filling materials to suit your needs.
How Do I Know if I Require a Tooth Filling?
Tooth decay is the most common dental issue which requires tooth filling. Patients might also need fillings if they are dealing with any of the following dental problems:
- Tooth decay or cavities (seen as dark spots on the teeth)
- Tooth sensitivity to heat or cold
- A cracked or chipped tooth
- A former filling that has broken come loose or is missing
- Toothache
- Pain on biting down or chewing
Sometimes, you may have damaged a tooth so extensively that a root canal, crown or inlay/onlay might be more suitable. You should always get a dental check-up first.
Dental fillings – Step by step process
Thankfully, a tooth filling is a straightforward process that is completed in a single appointment. The first step is to take an X-ray to check the tooth damage severity.
Our dentist will administer a local anaesthetic to numb the area depending on how deep the cavity is. Using a dental drill, we remove the decay, shape the tooth and prepare the cavity.
If you’re seeking a simple solution to save your tooth from further damage, then you should consider dental fillings at our clinic. Our treatment techniques conserve healthy tooth structure while strengthening the tooth.
