Dental Fillings

tooth fillings

At EGO dental clinic & practice we use tooth-coloured, mercury-free alternatives. Tooth-coloured fillings are made from a composite resin material that can be coloured to match your tooth. Hence, it gives no impression that tooth has been treated in anyway.

What are Dental Fillings?

Dental fillings are used to cure and treat damaged or decayed teeth, usually in cases of cavities. It is a very common procedure and can be completed in just one sitting.

Who needs a dental filling?

Dental fillings commonly are placed in teeth that have experienced decay or fracture. Following removal of the decay, the filling is placed to restore the tooth to its natural form and function.

A cosmetic filling is a dental treatment whereby composite white filling is used to cure a decayed tooth. This material is filled into the tooth to prevent the decay from spreading as well as to repair any damage that the tooth has gone through. It also reduces the chances of tooth extraction.

The treatment is also intended to prevent serious infections like an abscess.

Composite white filling is composed of acrylic resin and glass. Its white color helps it match the color of tooth, thus giving a natural look as compared to silver amalgam.

The Procedure Involved

A small hole is drilled into the tooth within the damaged area and then the filling is inserted in it completely. Dentist will also give a final polish to make sure that the filling gives a proper, clean and white look that matches your other teeth.

Types of Dental Fillings we offer

Composite or Tooth Coloured – Recommended

A composite tooth filling is typically made of powdered glass and acrylic resin. Filling can be coloured to match person’s existing teeth, making it much less visible.

Process of Dental Filling

  1. Local Anaesthetic will be applied to numb the area.
  2. Decayed portion will be removed from the damaged tooth – (with minimal invasive approach!)
  3. Once the teeth has been cleaned and prepared, the dentist will isolate and fill it with suitable filling material, shaping it like the tooth structure missing so it looks as natural as possible.
  4. You may be asked to bite down to check if the new filling has set in properly or not.
  5. The shape will be adjusted until the filling is comfortable for you.

Post Treatment Advise

Once through with your surgery, our dentist will guide you how to care for your tooth. Generally you have to avoid very hot and very cold beverages or chewing hard food for a certain period of time. Once completely healed, you can go back to normal routine but remember fillings are artificial and need proper maintenance and care.

Dental Filling for Children

Baby teeth are more soft and sensitive as well as porous, which brings them more at risk of decay and cavities. The process is same for kids, as for the adults but children should stop eating 2 hours prior to the procedure.

I have had many treatments with the team at EGO and despite my deep fears of dentists, they have always made me feel comfortable and secure. Charlie has even used a Virtual breathing VR experience to help me relaxed.
They are also always considering your well being during treatments.

I’m extremely happy with this clinic! Everything was excellent and well organized. Dr. Attariani is highly skilled both professionally and technically, and I always felt I was in very safe hands. The entire team is incredibly friendly, attentive, and creates a very welcoming atmosphere.
I visited for dental treatment and also had a tattoo removal done here. Both experiences were outstanding and handled with great care and professionalism.
Highly recommended, everything here is just right!

Golnar, Charlie, and the entire team is kind, helpful and incredibly professional! I have had several routine treatments like fillings done over the past five years there, as well as getting Invisalign. The tools and materials are always top notch, the clinic is immaculate and modern, and they always have a kind word and a smile for you. I could not recommend them more, and I am lucky to have found them!
