In a world of cracked, fractured, and decaying teeth, one hero stepped up to rescue your smile—fillings. Fillings are an important dental treatment that can save the teeth you’ve been working so hard to keep healthy!
What’s Their Secret?
Unlike other heroes, fillings don’t have a secret identity to uncover. Simply put, if you have teeth that are damaged, the affected pieces can be removed and replaced with a tooth-colored filling. Fillings are recommended for teeth that are:
- Chipped
- Cracked or broken
- Worn
- Spaced out
- Decayed
The Hero Process
Most of the time, fillings do their hero work in one appointment! The process is designed to be as comfortable and efficient as possible. Here’s what to expect:
- The tissue around the affected tooth will be numbed.
- The dentist will remove the affected pieces and clean the area.
- The filling will be placed to match the shape and color of your original tooth.
Have no fear, fillings are here to protect your smile! If you’d like to know more about them, your Ideal dental care experts can answer any questions. Just give us a call!*
