Why Might I Need a Dental Filling?

Dental fillings are recommended to prevent further damage from tooth decay. This usually occurs when bacteria break down the enamel and create cavities. If left untreated, cavities can grow larger over time, causing pain and discomfort when biting or chewing food.

Fortunately, a dental filling can restore the tooth's strength and structure, and prevent further decay.

The Benefits of Dental Fillings

PREVENTS FURTHER TOOTH DECAY

Dental fillings help prevent the progression of tooth decay. A cavity left untreated can worsen and cause more damage to the tooth, leading to tooth loss. A dental filling stops the cavity's progression, saves the tooth, and prevents the need for more invasive and expensive dental treatments.

RESTORES THE TOOTH'S FUNCTION

A damaged tooth can make it difficult to chew or bite food, making it painful to eat. A dental filling restores the tooth's function and strength, allowing you to eat and chew without discomfort.

IMPROVES THE TOOTH'S APPEARANCE

Dental fillings are made of tooth-colored materials, making them blend in with your natural teeth. As a result, your tooth's appearance is restored and your smile is improved.
