Fillings are used to replace decayed portions of teeth that may be broken, cracked or affected by cavities. Without such replacements, decayed teeth portions could cause toothache, sharp throbbing pain, or sensitivity to hot/cold food and beverages. Tooth fillings relieve you of these kinds of pain and prevent tooth decay and infections.  

With modern technology, patients can aesthetically restore their natural smile, prevent fractures and chew food with ease by getting new tooth fillings or replacing existing ones. Tooth fillings are a durable and natural-looking option for dealing with cavities and improving tooth functionalities. 

If you’ve experienced relatively minor damage to your teeth due to a cavity, tooth fillings will replace your decayed and damaged tooth materials. They will protect your teeth from further decay and reduce sensitivity by covering areas that are missing protective enamel.

If your teeth are hurting or you think you have a cavity, schedule an appointment with us so we can put together a treatment plan to ease and fix your pain.
