FAQs

What is a tooth filling?

A tooth filling is a treatment used to restore a tooth damaged by decay back to its normal function and shape.

How long does a filling last?

Traditional fillings can last many years with proper care, while CEREC restorations offer even greater durability.

Does getting a filling hurt?

We use modern techniques and local anesthesia to ensure that the procedure is as comfortable as possible.

What makes CEREC different from regular fillings?

CEREC uses high-quality ceramic material, which is more durable and natural-looking than traditional filling materials. Plus, CEREC restorations are completed in just one visit.

How do I care for my filling?

Good oral hygiene, including brushing, flossing, and regular dental check-ups, will help your filling last longer.

What happens if I don't get a filling?

Ignoring a cavity can result in the decay spreading deeper into the tooth, causing pain, infection, and potentially requiring more invasive treatments like root canals or extractions.

How can I prevent needing a filling?

Maintaining good oral hygiene by brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and visiting your dentist regularly can help prevent cavities. Limiting sugary foods and drinks also reduces the risk of decay.

Is there a way to reverse early tooth decay without a filling?

In some cases, early tooth decay can be reversed with fluoride treatments, improved oral hygiene, and dietary changes. However, once a cavity forms, a filling is typically required to restore the tooth.

How often should I visit the dentist to avoid needing fillings?

It’s recommended to visit the dentist every six months for a routine check-up and cleaning. Regular visits allow your dentist to catch early signs of decay before they require fillings.

Can children prevent needing fillings, and how?

Yes, children can prevent cavities with proper brushing and flossing habits, a balanced diet low in sugary snacks, and regular dental check-ups. Fluoride treatments and dental sealants can also provide extra protection against decay.
