Cavities and minor tooth damage can compromise your oral health, but dental fillings provide a simple and effective solution. At Smileworks, we offer high-quality dental fillings to restore your teeth, prevent further decay, and maintain a healthy, natural smile.
Dental fillings are materials used to repair teeth that have been affected by cavities, cracks, or wear. The filling restores the tooth’s structure, function, and strength while preventing bacteria from causing further damage. At Smileworks, we provide composite (tooth-colored) fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth and ceramic fillings, which offer durability and stain resistance.
You may need a dental filling if you experience tooth sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods, visible holes or dark spots on your teeth, pain when biting down, or rough, chipped areas on a tooth. During your dental check-up, our team at Smileworks will assess your teeth and determine if a filling is necessary.
Getting a filling is a quick and straightforward process. First, we assess the affected tooth and numb the area for a comfortable experience. The decayed portion of the tooth is then carefully removed to create a clean surface. Next, the selected filling material is applied, shaped, and hardened for a secure fit. Finally, we ensure a natural bite and polish the filling for a smooth finish.
To extend the lifespan of your fillings and maintain good oral health, brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss regularly to prevent plaque buildup around the fillings, avoid biting on hard objects that could damage the filling, and schedule routine dental check-ups at Smileworks for professional cleaning and examinations.
If you suspect you need a filling or want to replace an old one, don’t wait! Contact Smileworks today to schedule a consultation and keep your smile healthy and strong.
