Filling Treatment

Saving Your Tooth and
Relieving Pain for a Healthier Smile

What Is Filling Treatment?

Dental fillings are used to restore teeth damaged by decay. The process begins with removing the decayed part of the tooth and cleaning the cavity. The cleaned area is then filled with a material that prevents further decay and restores the tooth’s function. Common materials include composite resins, which blend with the tooth color; amalgam, known for its durability; and glass ionomer, which releases fluoride. After filling, the dentist checks the bite and makes necessary adjustments. Regular dental care is essential to maintain the filled tooth and prevent new cavities.

Pain Relief

A filling relieves pain by sealing cavities and protecting the tooth from further decay and sensitivity.

Filling treatment cleans out the infection, preventing it from spreading and causing more severe health issues.

Restores Functionality

A dental filling restores a tooth by sealing cavities, preventing further decay, and restoring function.

Improves Oral Health

Fillings restore teeth by sealing cavities, preventing decay, and preserving tooth function, improving overall oral health.

    Had a great experience at the clinic. The staff is very responsive and polite. Dr Nibras helped me get my teeth aligned and I'm very happy with the results. Booking an appointment is hassle-free and treatment plans don't burn holes in the pocket. An easy recommendation.

  • Dr Nibras hands down is the best Dentist that I have ever met. I was having a tooth ache for almost 6 months and I had visited couple of other dentists before but that did not help me. Later one of my friend suggested Dr Niras. I visited her and in couple of appointments she helped me recover the toothache. She is very down to earth and makes the patient very comfortable and does not rush. I would highly recommend any one with any dental probem to visit Dr NIbras.

    Visited Jas Dental, a dentist clinic in Koramangala near Christ University for two dental procedures. For a cavity filling and teeth cleanup, the doctor did a thorough job. I had also gone in later for a wisdom tooth extraction, the doctor explained each step to me, and the extraction was quick. *Note that for extractions, it's advisable to book an appointment a day in advance to ensure the availability of the dental surgeon.

FAQs

What materials are used for fillings?

Common materials for fillings include composite resins (tooth-colored), amalgam (a mix of metals), glass ionomer (releases fluoride), and resin ionomer. The choice depends on factors like the cavity’s location, size, and the patient’s preference.

Are dental fillings painful?

The process of getting a filling is typically not painful. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, so you may only feel slight pressure or vibrations. Some sensitivity might occur after the procedure, but it usually resolves quickly.

How long do dental fillings last?

The lifespan of a filling depends on the material used and the location of the filling. Composite fillings typically last 5-7 years, while amalgam fillings can last 10-15 years or longer with proper care.

How should I care for a filled tooth?

Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice daily, flossing daily, and visiting the dentist regularly. Avoid hard or sticky foods that could damage the filling, and report any discomfort to your dentist.

Will a filling change the appearance of my tooth?

Tooth-colored fillings are designed to blend with your natural teeth and improve their appearance. Silver or amalgam fillings are more noticeable but are often used in less visible areas.

Can fillings fix a cracked or chipped tooth?

Fillings can repair minor cracks and chips, but extensive damage may require other treatments such as crowns or veneers. Your dentist will assess the extent of the damage and recommend the appropriate treatment.
