Unfortunately, we can’t always save your teeth from needing that little bit of extra support provided by fillings. While we work as hard as possible to protect your teeth from decay and the formation of cavities, sometimes the damage has already been done.
When a hole has formed in your tooth, this needs to be filled to prevent further deterioration or to stop bacteria invading the inside of your tooth causing infection.
When you visit Meadows Dental Care for a routine appointment, we will thoroughly examine your teeth. This will include taking x-rays to check for structural damage to the enamel. If we identify any holes or cavities, you may need a filling.
Fillings can be made from a variety of materials such as:
Prior to receiving your filling, we will prepare the affected tooth by cleaning it and removing the damaged enamel.
The cost of each filling type differs, however, if you would like we offer a range of finance options to help you spread the cost of treatment and benefit from our dental expertise. Investing in your smile has never been easier.
