What Are Dental Fillings?

Unlike the rest of the body, your teeth can't heal themselves when they are decayed or damaged. Dental fillings are materials used to repair cavities, restoring the health and function of your smile. They also offer an effective solution to restore chipped, broken, fractured, or worn teeth.

Restoring a damaged tooth with a dental filling will protect the tooth structure from further deterioration. A cavity left untreated can lead to deep decay and complications requiring root canal therapy or even extraction, which may necessitate a tooth replacement option such as a dental implant or a bridge.

Caring for Teeth with Dental Fillings

Caring for teeth with dental fillings requires proper oral hygiene practices, just like your natural teeth. Brushing and flossing regularly and steering away from sugary foods or carbonated drinks will help keep dental problems at bay. If you grind your teeth in your sleep, we may recommend a custom-made mouthguard to protect your dental filling and natural tooth enamel from wear or damage.

Don't forget to schedule your routine, twice-a-year dental exams and cleanings to keep your restorations and natural teeth in tip-top shape. Caring for your oral health will lower your risk of future tooth decay and gum disease and will help you maintain a healthy, confident smile.
