Dental fillings: The most common dental treatment for tooth decay
Dental fillings are the most common dental procedure and involve the restoration of teeth that have been damaged by tooth decay. Tooth decay is a common condition that can lead to pain, sensitivity, and even tooth loss if left untreated.
How is a filling done?
Tooth decay is often discovered during a dental checkup or when the patient notices a problem. The filling process involves removing the damaged part of the tooth and replacing it with a filling material.
Filling materials
There are various types of fillings, but the most common are composite resin (white filling) and amalgam (black metal filling). At WeCare dental we use exclusively composite resin fillings, as they are superior to amalgam in many areas:
* Aesthetic: Composite resin fillings are the color of the tooth and are therefore almost invisible.
* Durability: Modern composite resin materials are very durable and can last for many years.
* Safety: Composite resin is a safe material that does not contain mercury, unlike amalgam.
