Fillings

Think some of your teeth might need a little TLC? Not to worry! At Turtle Creek Dental Care, we’re experts at restoring your pearly whites with our trusty dental fillings.

What Are Dental Fillings?

Dental fillings are a magical treatment used to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay or injury. They can be made from different materials, with the most common being amalgam (a mixture of metals) and composite resin (a tooth-colored material). The choice of filling material will depend on the location and extent of the decay, your oral health history, and your personal preferences.

The Treatment Process

The procedure involves removing the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth and filling the resulting cavity to restore its structure and function.

First, we’ll give your tooth a little numbing love with a local anesthetic. Then, we’ll use a dental drill or laser to remove the damaged parts of your tooth before filling it up with your chosen material. Finally, we’ll shape and polish the filling to achieve a comfortable, natural-looking result you can proudly show the world.

Benefits of Getting Dental Fillings

Dental fillings will make your tooth look and feel better while also helping to prevent further damage or decay. With proper oral hygiene and regular dental checkups, it can last for many years to come. Some other benefits of getting a dental filling include:

  • Helps restore the function and appearance of damaged teeth
  • Can be customized to match the color of your natural teeth
  • Helps to prevent tooth sensitivity and discomfort
  • Prevents the need for more extensive and costly dental treatments
