What is a Cavity Filling?

A cavity filling is a dental procedure where the dentist removes the decayed portion of a tooth and fills it with a material to restore its shape and function. This treatment helps prevent further decay and strengthens the tooth, allowing your child to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

4 Benefits of Cavity Filling

 

Prevent Further Decay

Cavity fillings restore the shape and structure of a decayed or damaged tooth, preventing the need for more extensive treatments in the future.

Restore Tooth Function

Cavity fillings restore the shape and function of the tooth, which allows your child to chew and speak properly.

Number Icon Two

Relieve Sensitivity

Filling a cavity seals off the sensitive inner parts of the tooth, which reduces tooth sensitivity to hold or cold temperatures.

Boost Confidence

With a cavity-free smile, your child can feel confident about their smile and oral health.

What to Expect

During the cavity filling appointment, our friendly dental team ensures a comfortable experience for your child. We begin by applying a local anesthetic on the area around the tooth to minimize any discomfort. Next, the decayed portion of the tooth is gently removed. After cleaning the cavity, the dentist will fill the tooth with the preferred dental filling material. Finally, the filling is shaped and polished to restore the tooth’s original shape and function.
