A Comprehensive Guide to Dental Fillings

When tooth decay is not diagnosed and treated early, it can lead to severe pain and tooth loss. Dental fillings restore the function of the tooth by cleaning the decayed tissue.

What Is a Dental Filling?

Tooth decay, one of the most common problems threatening our oral and dental health, can lead to severe pain and tooth loss if not diagnosed and treated early. With dental filling treatment, the decayed tooth tissue is cleaned and the function and aesthetics of the tooth can easily be restored.

Types of Fillings

Today, composite (white) fillings are the most preferred method aesthetically because they match the natural color of the tooth. Your dentist will recommend the most suitable type of filling based on the condition of your tooth.

Care After Filling

With regular oral care and dental check-ups after the filling, you can extend the life of your fillings.
