Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are a fundamental restorative treatment used to repair teeth damaged by decay, cracks or wear. While often medically necessary to treat cavities, modern fillings — particularly tooth-coloured composite resin — seamlessly bridge the gap between health and aesthetics by blending with your natural enamel.
Why You Might Need a Filling
If left untreated, minor decay progressively grows, eating away more of the tooth and leading to significant pain, infection or even tooth loss. Common signs that a filling may be required include:
Sharp pain when consuming hot, cold, sweet or acidic foods or drinks.
Noticeable holes, dark spots or rough edges on the tooth surface.
Pain when biting or chewing, or a persistent toothache.
