Dentists at Kidz Connextion have experience filling cavities for patients of all ages. Fillings are a great way to preserve teeth that have experienced some decay or are chipped or cracked. Getting a cavity filled is a standard and non-invasive procedure that is typically completed in a short appointment with local anesthetic. The area is numbed before a dentist removes any decay from the affected tooth. The tooth is then thoroughly cleaned and prepared for the filling material.
Amalgam fillings are made from a mixture of metals that bond together to create a hard, strong filling for a compromised tooth. Amalgam fillings don’t blend in with natural teeth, but they are a durable option and some patients choose to use metal fillings on their back teeth. Composite fillings are more aesthetically matched to the look natural teeth. These fillings are typically used on front teeth and surface cavities. Once the material is placed, it is trimmed and polished to blend right into a patient’s natural smile. If you or anyone in your family is in need of a filling, please contact us.
