Dental filling options and composite fillings

Rebuilding smiles with fillings

Dental fillings are a common and effective treatment for restoring teeth damaged by decay, bringing them back to their normal function and shape.

Among the various filling options available, composite fillings stand out for their aesthetic and functional benefits. Made from a tooth-coloured resin, composite fillings blend seamlessly with the natural colour of your teeth, making them an ideal choice for fillings in visible areas.

Unlike amalgam fillings, which are more noticeable, composites bond directly to the tooth structure, providing support and minimising the risk of breakage. This bonding process also allows for a more conservative preparation, preserving more of the healthy tooth.

Composite fillings not only restore decayed areas but also improve the overall appearance of the tooth. Drs Jack and Angela Gaffey no longer use amalgam filling material.

Moreover, advancements in dental technology have significantly enhanced the durability and longevity of composite fillings, making them suitable for both front and back teeth. Opting for composite fillings can ensure a natural-looking repair that strengthens your teeth and enhances your smile.

Procedure for Tooth Fillings: How It Works

Dental fillings are a common treatment for repairing teeth that have been damaged by decay. The process begins with the dentist removing the decayed material from the tooth, cleaning the affected area thoroughly to ensure no bacteria or debris is left behind.

Once the tooth is clean, the composite filling material is applied to the cavity. Composite resin, is popular for its ability to blend and match the tooth’s natural colour.

The filling material is then shaped to fit the tooth’s contours and hardened with a special blue light. This restoration process restores the tooth to its original shape and function, preventing further decay and discomfort.

Tooth Fillings FAQs

What are tooth fillings?

Tooth fillings are dental materials used to restore the integrity and function of teeth damaged by decay or trauma. They “fill” the cavity or hole, preventing further decay and restoring the tooth’s shape.

What materials are used for tooth fillings?

Common filling materials include dental amalgam (silver fillings), composite resins (tooth-coloured fillings), gold, and porcelain. The choice depends on the location of the filling, aesthetic considerations, and cost. Dr Jack and Angela traditionally use white resin material for most of their work.

Do tooth fillings hurt?

The procedure itself is painless because the area around the tooth is numbed with a local anaesthetic. Some sensitivity or discomfort may be experienced after the anaesthetic wears off, but this usually subsides quickly.

How long do tooth fillings last?

The lifespan of a filling depends on the material used and individual habits.

Can tooth fillings fall out?

Yes, fillings can fall out or become loose over time, especially if the tooth experiences further decay or the filling is subjected to heavy biting forces. Regular dental check-ups can help detect and address any issues with fillings early on.
