When decay damages a tooth, it can cause enhanced sensitivity or pain upon chewing. A filling will help to restore the tooth and relieve you of any symptoms.
Most people, at some stage need fillings. At Thurloe Street Dental and Implant Centre, we offer white fillings which, unlike the traditional silver fillings, have the distinct advantage of not being visible when you laugh or smile.
In addition, white fillings differ to silver fillings, as they stick to the teeth, which means they can be used to repair teeth that have been chipped, broken or have decayed.
White fillings come in a range of shades to closely match your existing tooth colour giving a totally natural appearance.
Your dentist will recommend a filling following a thorough examination of your teeth. The affected tooth will be thoroughly cleaned and prepared before the filling is applied.
To ensure that the filling feels natural and comfortable, your dentist may polish it to smooth the surface.
