Dental fillings

When a tooth has decay or damage, a filling helps restore its strength and function. The process is straightforward and comfortable — we remove the affected area, place a durable tooth-coloured material, and shape it to blend naturally with your bite.

Fillings not only repair a tooth but also prevent the problem from spreading deeper, which helps protect your long-term oral health.

What a filling supports

  • Long-term tooth strength
  • Lower risk of deeper infection
  • Improved comfort and function
  • A natural look that blends with your smile

Why fillings matter

Cavities tend to grow quietly. Treating them early keeps the tooth strong and reduces the chance of needing more complex care down the road. A filling stabilizes the area, seals out bacteria, and helps you bite and chew comfortably again.

What happens during a filling

Your visit begins with numbing the tooth so everything feels comfortable. We gently remove the decay, prepare the area, and place a tooth-coloured filling. After shaping and polishing, the tooth looks and feels natural.

We’ll walk you through after-care tips and what to expect as the numbness wears off.
