What Are Dental Filling?
Dental fillings are a common dental procedure used to repair cavities (holes in your teeth) or other damage like chipped teeth. They help prevent further decay and restore the functionality of your teeth. Early detection is key, as cavities worsen over time, increasing the likelihood of needing more extensive treatment later. Regular dental check-ups are crucial for catching cavities early.

Different Types Of Filling
Traditional silver-coloured amalgam fillings offer strong durability, making them ideal for back teeth. For a more natural appearance, tooth-coloured composite fillings are preferred for visible teeth. More extensive damage may necessitate inlays and overlays, which provide additional support for larger cavities or damaged chewing surfaces. Lastly, temporary fillings offer a short-term solution while a permanent filling is prepared.
