What is a Dental Filling?

When decay makes a small hole in a tooth, a filling repairs it. We remove only the decayed part, then rebuild the tooth with a tooth-coloured material.

Catching cavities while they're small means a simpler filling and more of your own tooth kept. Left too long, decay can reach the nerve and need more involved treatment.

We'll show you what we see, explain whether a filling is needed, and match the material to your tooth before we begin.

How it works

Your treatment, step by step.

1

A closer look

We check the tooth, often with an X-ray, to see how deep the decay goes.

2

Numbing

The area is numbed with local anaesthetic so you stay comfortable.

3

Removing decay

Only the decayed part of the tooth is removed, keeping as much healthy tooth as possible.

4

Filling and shaping

The tooth is filled, shaped to fit your bite, and polished smooth.

Could Dental Fillings Be Right for You?

A filling is usually the right fix for small to moderate cavities and minor chips.

If the damage is bigger than a filling can handle, we'll tell you honestly and explain the other options.

A tooth is sensitive to sweet, hot or cold food.

You can feel a rough spot or small hole in a tooth.

An old filling has cracked, worn or fallen out.

A check-up has found early decay.

Stops decay spreading

Filling a cavity early protects the rest of the tooth from further damage.

Tooth-coloured

Composite fillings are matched to your tooth shade, so they blend in naturally.

Usually one visit

Most fillings are completed in a single appointment.

Frequently asked questions.

The questions patients ask us most about Dental Fillings, answered plainly.

The tooth is numbed first, so most patients feel pressure rather than pain. Some mild sensitivity afterwards is normal and usually fades within days.

Many last for years, depending on the size of the filling and your habits. We'll check them at your regular visits.

Yes, if they're worn or failing. We'll look at each one and tell you whether replacing it makes sense.

Composite fillings set straight away, but wait until the numbness wears off so you don't bite your cheek.

Yes. Filling cavities in baby teeth helps keep them healthy until the adult teeth are ready.
