Dental fillings, also known as dental restorations, are a common procedure used to treat dental caries and restore the structure and function of damaged teeth. They involve filling and sealing cavities caused by decay with safe and durable dental materials.
Benefits:
Tooth Preservation: Dental fillings help preserve the natural structure of the tooth by preventing the spread of decay and avoiding the need for tooth extractions.
Functional Restoration: By restoring teeth affected by decay, dental fillings enable comfortable and natural chewing and speaking, restoring proper mouth function.
Enhanced Aesthetics: Dental fillings can be matched to the natural color and shape of the teeth, providing an aesthetic appearance without impacting the patient’s smile.
Process:
Evaluation and Diagnosis: During the initial consultation, the dentist will assess the patient’s oral health and determine the need for dental fillings through visual examination and dental X-rays.
Tooth Preparation: Once the decay is diagnosed, the dentist will prepare the tooth by removing the decay and cleaning the cavity to place the dental filling.
Filling Placement: The dental filling material is placed in the prepared cavity and molded to fit the natural shape of the tooth. It is then hardened using special light or chemical processes to ensure a durable bond.
Adjustment and Polishing: After hardening the dental filling, the dentist will carefully adjust and polish the filling to ensure a comfortable fit and natural appearance.
