A dental filling, also called a bonding, is a tooth-coloured material used to restore damaged or broken parts of a tooth. Damage may occur due to cavities or accidents, such as a fall.
The tooth is cleaned, and the filling is placed to match the natural shape and colour of your tooth, making it almost impossible to tell the difference between the filling and the original tooth.
Our dental team will examine your teeth to determine if a filling is suitable. Small cavities and minor tooth defects are ideal for fillings, while larger damage may require an inlay, onlay, or crown.
The affected tooth is thoroughly cleaned to remove all decay. A tooth-coloured filling material is carefully applied to restore the tooth’s shape and function.
A special blue light is used to harden the filling material. Your bite is then checked and adjusted for comfort, leaving you with a fully restored and natural-looking tooth.
